Hi Mike
Yes, the idea of frequencies for intercontinental DX seems to have taken off,
but not, so far, the idea of a separate frequency for contest mode, which was
WB5JJJ's suggestion.

It did get traction.
I routinely now see FT8 signals on 50.313, 50.323 and even 50.333 at times when
the band is open over the Atlantic.

As you may know, WB5JJJ suggested using a separate frequency on 6m for contest
mode FT8, and leaving 50.313 for those running normal FT8 format. I tend to
think this might work out fairly well, but it didn't gain much traction on the
WSJT group where he posted the suggestion.
But this wouldn't necessarily result in much less QRM/pile-up depth...perhaps a
factor of two reduction
