Hi Mark,I too can see both 313 and 318 on my panadapter but saw very little
activity on FT4 while FT8 was very busy. I thought FT4 was designed more for
contesting with fasterturn around time yet few chose to use it,

Hi I am curious to hear from anyone who used FT4 during the CQ VHF contest. I
don't recall seeing any activity on the 50 MHz FT4 frequency on my band scope
when I was in CO80 on Saturday, but I may have missed some activity. I did
manage to detect SSB activity on various odd frequencies such as 50.150 and
worked stations so I believe I was keeping a reasonable eye on things (:
I sort of enjoyed watching the band scope and changing frequencies from time to
time but it got rather hot inside the truck in the sun despite the cool outside
temperatures (below 20 degrees C) but air conditioning helped at times at the
expense of a somewhat higher noise floor.
