I asked Ev some of the same questions with the same type of answers. Propnet on 20m is tucked away on 14097, so being a narrow mode a good place for them would be just under 10150. Since they are not involved in QSO's and are simply transmitting beacons that would be a good place for them.
Slightly different subject , but why are there so many propnet stations on 30M, and so few on 20 and 40?
