Hi Glenn, yes the band wasn't there and I have a faulty power line pole that they refuse to fix, it's about 200m from the qth and splatters S8 on 20m until it rains, (then all quiet and I can hear a pin drop in the south pacific lol I WISH)
Well it occurred that this mode 2250hz wide is a little big to play in between the rtty, olivia 500, ale etc I see Andy has an idea too and I can see your point to Andy. I just think at 080 we will all get stomped on. I notice another chap asking about the old 109 MT63 frequency which is kind of where I was going as I haven't seen any mt63 for ages. Andy I understand the wanting to keep it all close together etc but I cant see how well it'd work. If we could make an unofficial experimental mode slot ?? Keep the suggestions coming though. I cant be the only one here that has noticed that RTTY station at 14.081 - 2 all day so far lol Regards And sorry we didn't quite make it last time Glenn.

I'm sorry that I missed the second M during our QSO. The band was just not there. I'm wondering? How wide is this mode? I'm sure the RTTY stations must hear us as well.

Just submitted this to Jose on his ROS blog page. What are your thoughts people please. Thanks for a quick reply Jose. There will be others who can recommend exact frequencies. I understand about not being swamped in the past lol, but the sub bands do kind of work. E.g. You'd never see an MT63 signal down at 14 075. I was thinking along the lines of just above the olivia 1000 frequencies. IE above the beacons and olivia but this may only give 1 spot frequency before you hit 14.112 14.101 – 14.112 is for unattended but is also used by olivia and winmor I think, there certainly wouldn't be any rtty in the way lol. Just thought i’d throw the suggestion out here and see what others say. I am by no means an expert on band allocations hi hi could you mention this on the yahoo group too Jose and there will be some ideas for sure. Toby MM0TOB
