Hi

If you don't know JA have new bandplan for RTTY!
You don't need to work low on 80m or 40m anymore!

Hi Rag

Japanese RTTY segments are follows:

3.520-3.530MHz
3.520 - 3.525 is main segment
3.525 - 3.530 yes but SSB QRM at evening, 
              ok for EU at midnight and morning

3.599-3.612MHz
yes but SSB QRM at evening.
hope more DX activitys up 3.600

7.025-7.045MHz RTTY
7.025 - 7.030 PSK at usual
7.030 - 7.035 RTTY, yes but SSTV QRM
7.100-7.200MHz mainly for domestics QSO, DX has not seen.

I hope to see you on low bands.

REPLY:

A further complication is that JA stations are limited to below 7045.
This makes the "sweet spot" fall between 7040-7045, just 5 kHz.
