If you use 14105 - 14110 your going to be bucking heads with rtty ops.  You might read Olivia thru that, but the rtty ops wont enjoy it.

Excuse my ignorance, but why are we trying to use 14105 to 14110 for OLIVIA and the other modes then?
 
Why are we not down between 14073 and 14080, for example?
 
I am not up on the FCC rules, our country's regulations would not prohibit Olivia and the like in that segment. It doesn't make sense to beat each
other over the head with QRM........ and I always thought Winlink was winlink, not several different versions

Please do not confuse the NTSD using the Winlink Classic program with the
Winlink 2000 email system. All of the NTSD Winlink Classic stations I connect
to stay within in the automatic sub-bands as laid out in FCC regulations,
Part 97.221(b). These are: 14095-140995khz and 14100.5-14112khz. In fact, all
of the stations I connect to on 20m are either at 14096khz or 14098khz. Some
other stations may use other frequencies but these are the main ones.

This is different from the Winlink 2000 email group which has statons on such
frequencies as 14065, 14069, 14070, 14105, 14107, and 14109khz. Please note
that the frequencies between 14100.5khz and 14112khz *are* designated by the
FCC as being for automatic type operation.

So if you want to get involved with handling NTS messages instead of email
messages, getting involved with the NTSD should not be an interference
problem.

Just as a plug - the FCC has put out RM-11305 and RM-11306 out for public
comment. They will both have significant impacts on digital users. Analyze
the proposals carefully and MAKE COMMENTS TO THE FCC. Make your analyses
carefully, some impacts of the proposals could actually result in more
interference to digital operations instead of less.
