The latest ARRL Contest Update newsletter summarized some 3830 ARRL June VHF
Contest comments as follows:
"In the soapbox comments from the most recent June ARRL VHF Contest many
stations were reporting the use of the MSK144 digital mode for making QSOs
where a SSB or CW path did not appear to exist. MSK144 can be sent and
received using the WSJT-X program by Joe Taylor, K1JT. MSK144 uses exchange
sequences as fast a five seconds to take advantage of propagation that might
occur due to meteor scatter."
Way back in the ancient days of radio there was a saying:
"You can't work them if you can't hear them."
Maybe we need an updated saying:
"You can work them even if you can't hear them."
