here in the South East, we all get on FT8, on 144.174 and 432.174. This works
well for us. It gets everybody on the same frequency and makes for faster
contacts, than hanging out on the call frequencies. To me, Q65 looks like more
of a mode to use for schedules. It does seem to work with weaker signals than
FT8. W4AS and I had pretty good luck with Q65C30, on 1296 skeds. But, I don't
think it is quite as social as FT8. That is, I don't think that people hanging
out on a frequency, looking for contacts will work as well as FT8. Just my
opinion. Try Q65, in the 432 Sprint. A lot to learn. Buddy WB4OMG

[VHFcontesting] Q65Do y
ou think Q65 modes will be used during the upcoming June VHFcontest? I was
interested in this sentence in the quick start guide:"Q65 will enable stations
with a modest Yagi and 100 W or more and towork one another on 6 m at distances
up to ~2000 km on most days of theyear, in dead band conditions."73Stu2,
