Obviously, I am referring to digital modes  as we do use voice and cw 
modes with some success, although quite slow compared to the potential 
of what digital modes could do.

There is at least one official ARRL Skipnet operation on 10.147, but it 
is fair to say that few use the band for digital links other than 
Winlink 2000.

I plan to call CQ on various digital modes and probably will try higher, 
around 10.140 dial frequency with center freq perhaps 1 KHz or a 
somewhat higher. I previously tried 10.130 and up but it appears that 
many DX stations would only work digital above 10.140.

I am using Multipsk, so that allows me to transmit a waterfall message 
showing what mode I am using. I would like to see what that looks like 
so perhaps others will turn on this feature when calling CQ. It should 
help a lot in getting another station to respond if they know what 
digital mode you are using.
