Hi Steve.   I plan to focus my 6M meteor scatter efforts on MSK144 during the January contest.   I plan to have FSK441 available but don't expect to run it except by prior arrangement.   If there are other operators within reasonable meteor scatter range of CN89/CN99 who would prefer to run FSK441 please let me know.

My contest plans are very much up in the air right now as the temperatures have been cold and the snowfall has been extensive by CN89 standards.    Hopefully I can access my typical roving sites (especially in CN99.)  As a plan B I may just setup the 6M station at home in CN89 but hope I can do a bit better than that.

Steve I have doubts that we will be able to work each other but hopefully this email is also of some interest to others and good luck in the contest.

It looks like the latest WSJT-X (1.7.0) now covers anything we might need for EME (though the propagation forecast isn't promising) or weak signal JT65, and MSK144 for meteor scatter.  But not FSK441...will anyone be still using FSK441 in the contest?
