Howdy all,
To echo Barry, These are the frequencies that get used in the PNW..

There are a number of stations that DO run WJST modes on 144mhz and above
out here outside of contests.

144 & 222 get used fairly frequently outside of contests. I've also made
digital contacts on 432 outside of contests as well.

Please don't give up on us here in the PNW.. We ARE active on digi outside
contests. This is a stereotype that needs to end.

Please look for PNW folks on PJ.. we'll work you 6 - 222 MS and take
requests for terr. digi contacts on the highers if you have the fortitude
for trying.

Thanks! .-James K7KQA DN06 (digi equipped 6m - 13cm)
