Any one else want to try other digital modes out on 2 meters and up ?
we worked SJV to Morgan Hill on qra64 for fun in the contest over the weekend
and lots of ft8 contacts were made on 2m and some on uhf.
at 144.173 and 432.173 , perhaps we could share space closer to the wspr frequency and
find each other more often , the modes coexist in the same area on 30meters pretty well.
comments?

learning some things from the contest weekend , if you put in frequency into wsjt-x-rc2 under mode 'ALL'
wspr operation can sometimes start on the new all slots and not at the wspr frequency you used to use...
when running the station in auto-band change mode.... FYI

what i think would work is adding ft8 and qra-64 jt-9/jt65 frequency's on the list at the same frequency as wspr
we would just have to remember that 1400hz-1600hz is wspr subband...
the program shows and protects this sub-band on 30 meters , hopefully Mr taylow would be willing and can add this protection for vhf+ ?
