I pointed out to John that the JT65 folks use 10138 which will obviously extend up a bit by maybe 1.5KHz. Most of the RTTY I have heard is 10140 or above although I have heard some down as far as 10130.

In XV I was limited to 10100 to 10110. I believe several SE Asia countries have a similar limitation. I could have run RTTY in that range and I probably would have made many "friends" and not many QSOs.

I looked at this before going to GD, as 30M was going to be a mainstay band

10130-10150 is recommended for digital modes by the IARU in all regions. The
area round 10140 is full of rubbish :-)
Working split up 1-3, my chosen frequency was 10142, if the space was clear.
The alternative was 10136.
This worked with no complaints from anyone. 10136 is quieter and less liable
to QRM here but maybe a few ops don't look below 10140 for RTTY. Once you
get spotted it's fine.
Stats for GD4SKA on 30M: 1489 Qs, 76 DXCC, 6 continents. Vertical with
elevated radials about 8ft up.
Enjoy the trip!

Subject: [RTTY] 30M Band Plan Question

During my last operation as FS/K9EL, I was chastised because I was operating
RTTY on 10138, listening up 1-3.  I did a Google search for 30m Band Plans
and found quite a few conflicting plans.  Our group will be back in FS at
the beginning of December.  Perhaps someone here could suggest the best
place for me to transmit, knowing I will have to listen up 1-3 KHz.

Thank you

John, K9EL
