YES  if you really want to get ran off the band in a hurry get on .125 cw 
or rtty. rtty will have to be done between  .080 and .090  as .100 up is 
the dx window and us cw boys hang out  .080 to .090
beacons are from 50.010 to 50.080
so if you want to call on rtty i would suggest maybe  .080
i have been on six since  1962 and the band has changed a lot. only heard 
and worked maybe a dozen rtty stations on six in all that time. some psk 
(ugh) has been showing up around .080 as of late
