Around here, we use xxxx.174 for FT8 and xxxx.170 for Q65. FT8 is more less, the standard on 144, 222 and 432. But, occasionally someone uses Q65-15A. xxxx.236 seems to be the frequency for FreeDV.

This was quite the undertaking but I've added 222 and 432. Using my old FT736, 100w bricks, Directive Systems 10el on 222, 15 el on 432 at 45 ft. on a non-conductive cross boom between my 6 and 2m yagis atop my AB-577 rocket-launcher tubular tower. Using an old laptop without rig control and SignalLink unit for digital. I've got a great shot to the south but not so good in other directions (lots of trees).
I haven't op'd 222/432 since moving from FM19 in 2017 and digi really wasn't a thing then. What are the common digital frequencies for those bands?
Thanks!
