I got a good response to my question last week about the reasons for the FSK or RTTY mode button on my Kenwood TS-940sat, Tentec Paragon, and the clubs Icom ic-746pro.
Now I need to ask this - what frequencies are usually used on each band to do RTTY? The NAQP RTTY contest is this weekend and they are saying the ONLY bands not allowed for contest credit is 160m and the WARC bands. The ARRL's 'suggested' band plan calls for the following frequencies: 80m - 3.570-3.600MHz 40m - 7.040 and 7.080-7.125MHz 30m - 10.130-10.140MHz 20m - 14.070-14.095MHz 17m - 18.100-18.105MHz 15m - 21.070-21.110MHz 12m - 24.920-24.925MHz 10m - 28.070-28.150MHz Should I stick with these as my guidelines for this weekend or are there other areas of each band I should look for contacts? Thanks, James W8ISS
