Hi Jim, and tnx 20m FT4 qso.
I have been spotted on 40m, 20m, 30m in the last 10 min or so. I have not
seen any spots from my 17m signal, nor have I seen any sigs.
I'll try a few CQs on 15 and 10 to see if any spots show up.

Shouldn't 60m be included here as well? (Also FT8)
(My assumption is that FT4 will take much of the existing FT8 traffic,
60 is never included because people don’t read before they transmit (I know
that’s a shocker) and were transmitting out of band or illegally because of the
vast differences between 60 meter rules.

Is there a good reason why FT4 could not use the existing JT65 and JT9 watering
holes on all bands? They are quite clear most of the time, and considerate
operators could certainly share, especially with JT9.

Hi Grant,
My main criteria was to try and offer suggestions that stay within the
band plan narrow band digital mode sections. Although there are no good
solutions for some bands (80m, 40m and 20m particularly) I think going
below those sections is not justifiable as that would be straying into

I was not sure of the answer - so great, if the format is supported currently
in FT8 it will be in FT4 - good.
I see the EU VHF contest mode is getting a little more use now - mainly the
