But I agree that larger FT8 sub-bands (or multiple sub-bands on a given HF band) are really what is required to relieve congestion. -- 73, Joe, K1JT On 7/9/2021 11:54 AM, Al Pawlowski wrote: > Given FT8’s growth, a built-in way to ask for a jump to an clear frequency, > or channel, certainly seems like a good idea.
