What are the typical freqs used on ft4?
6M, 2M, 222, 432, 903 & 1296?
Because of the short duration required to make the q, it would be ideal for the
light skip seen on 6M Sunday morning before it opened later in the day.
Also, i will ask again, has anyone had any success in qsy on digital modes?
thanks and 73,

John,
I check FT4 frequency repeatedly: No signals ever.
When there is an Eskip opening BE ON SSB.
I saw some Eskip while on FT8: switched to SSB.
Netted 5 QSOs on the Gulf Coast from WPA
(only two grids though, EM60 and EM80; sniff).
Then the ICE hit big time, see my post (1/21/2020; 3:25)
