[VHFcontesting] JT65 vs. FSK441

Hello all,

 

I understand that FSK441 is primarily used for meteor scatter and JT65 is
for Tropo and HF too.  But for VHF contesting especially on 2M and above
isn't JT65 the preferred mode for weak signal work?  

 

I would think the ionization from small grained sized meteors don't produce
enough ionization for 2M and above to reflect off the trail.  I would think
JT65 would be better for 2M tropo and above but I'm looking for opinions.

 

 

73,
