If the Area frequency at 'low level' around your ALA is the same frequency as being used by QF1 at FL340, there's not much traffic around.
Yes I heard them just the other day.
In the area I operate there is plenty of traffic around. Most of it is low level, and everyone uses 126.7, and it works well.
I have no rusted-on opinions. Seems to me that people use 126.7 because it works. If it didn't they'd be doing something else.
