If it had just been for willful interference, I would agree, but the undertone of not following the bandplan was pretty alarming to me. Anyone can claim interference if you have voice modes in a CW area since you can not filter out a wide mode that has frequencies spread out and that will

How about using PSK31 as the baseline and then transmit any other digital mode a kHz or so up from the highest PSK31 signal that is on at that time? That is pretty much what I do on 80, 40, and 20. I would very much like a spot frequency to operate on for 30 meters which seems grossly

It seems to me that the IARU Region 2 bandplan should at least be consulted as part of the subject process.. See http://www.iaru-regionii.org/Region_2_HF_Band_Plan.html. 73 de AA5J Danny Douglas wrote: As to the 160 meter band, I was taken aback by your comment about operating digital

Danny, The ARRL bandplan shows Digital Modes to be 1.800 - 1.810. They also have an Experimental modes area at the top of the band from 1.995 - 2.000 in the Beacon bandplan area: http://www.arrl.org/FandES/field/regulations/bandplan.html I came across some information this week that really

Just to clarify my original point... I'm looking to establish a suggested calling frequency for ALL digital modes except CW, PSK31, RTTY, SSTV , PACTOR , and ALE(data ALE). My suggestion is that members of this list utilize a common frequency to call CQ and/or use attended beacon features
