Does anyone know of a company that is manufacturing a six meter tranceiverthat is rock bound on 50.313Looks like in the future, there is no need to tune the six meter band ?ThanksHerb K2LNSat WA2FGK

OK, I clued in. FT-8 et al. Fine modes. Excellent technology. Smells like cheating. At the very least, the QSOs should count for less. :-) -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | Travel by Train! _

...or they should count for MORE because they take so bloody long to make. When the band is open well, I can make 4-5 QSOs per minute on SSB. The absolute MINIMUM time for a FT8 QSO is 45 seconds and

You clearly missed the DXMap site over the weekend - there was a VE6 making FT8 QSOs on 2m throughout the western US. It may take a long time (like communicating with submerged subs) but that's how a

I would suggest running these new modes (ie. MSK144, FT8 etc) can be reasonably challenging (especially in a roving / portable setting.) 73 Mark S VE7AFZ Mark Spencer Aligned Solutions Co. mark@align

I know there is a lot of people thinking that FT8 will dominate activity. I don't see that happening during a contest when you are running SSB or CW during an Es opening. FT8 takes too long to comple

Mark I think Rover/Portable operators will lose out. FT8 works well but is just one more thing to juggle in the rover rig. With the reduction in ssb operations a guy would have to ask why would I spe
