Topband: RTTY on 160 meters

Are you asking because of the upcoming TARA RTTY Melee that seems to
include 160M?

Many band plans (e.g. ARRL's) show RTTY concentrating in 1.80-1.81.

I have 15 RTTY 160M QSO's in my log almost all from W1AW/portables this
year. They tend to cluster in 1.805-1.810 and 1.840-1.845. But with ARRL
160M going on in same weekend as TARA RTTY Melee, and how the entire bottom
50-80 kc of 160M will be occupied for sure, those normally free spots will
be in high demand by CW contesters.
