I would like to finalize my list of Field Day frequencies, before I publish them in the "FT8 For Field Day"group on Facebook, and elsewhere.  7080 seemed good during our first practice.   These freqs were selected based on the fact that RTTY usage in FD is almost non-existent.  Any major problems with these?
1840
3580
7080
14080
21080

Here is the digital breakdown from WVARA (K6EI) last year:

Band   Mode  QSOs
3.5  FT8      2
3.5  PSK3    22
7  FT8     13
7  PSK3    58
14  FT8     11
14  PSK3    50
14  RTTY    17
21  PSK3    24
50  FT8      6
144  FT8      1

I think the RTTY ops will figure out a place to operate, probably about xx.084 on most bands. We expect that FT8 will almost completely take over from PSK31. With FT8, we won't see, "PLEASE COPY SEVEN ALPHA MISSISSIPPI" coming in in text.
