[VHFcontesting] FT4

[Mark Spencer]

Hi I am curious to hear from anyone who used FT4 during the CQ VHF contest.   I don't recall seeing any activity on the 50 MHz FT4 frequency on my band scope  when I was in CO80 on Saturday, but I may have missed some activity.  I did manage to detect SSB activity on various odd frequencies such as 50.150 and worked stations so I believe I was keeping a reasonable eye on things (:

I sort of enjoyed watching the band scope and changing frequencies from time to time but it got rather hot inside the truck in the sun despite the cool outside temperatures (below 20 degrees C) but air conditioning helped at times at the expense of a somewhat higher noise floor.
