Hello - just a reminder we will be active in FM08jm with digital modes.
If things get slow after 22:00 local time on Saturday, we will try 6M
FSK441 by TXing on the calling frequency (50.260) and RXing on 50.285.
We will TX on the 2nd 30 second sequence. If we hear something on our RX
frequency, we'll shift our TX to 50.285 and continue the QSO for a
couple of cycles. (This is the 'offset method.')
The moon sets at 06:40z for us, so we'll intend to give EME a try on 2M
after 05:00z. Our CQ frequency will be 144.118, JT65B, TXing on the
second 1 minute sequence. (1-2, 3-4, etc. hope I have that right
according to tradition.)
If these frequencies overlap with somebody else's plan, please let me
know and we'll adjust accordingly. This is new to us and we look forward
to the experiment.
Good luck!
