Hi all,
I totally agree with Bill ND0B. Here in EU 50276 is crazy, with a lot of
EU-EU QSOs during multihop openings, 99% JT65A, very few JT9 slow.
A JT65 DX window will help, imho.
On 50280 to 50292 more and more JT9 fast activity, a very good thing, so
moving MSK144 to 50260 will help.
Regarding the multi-decode for JT9 fast, I also agree, though I have a JT9E
fast sample where 3 different decodes occured, 2 from the same call +
another one (@950Hz and @575 Hz).
An option to have the vertical waterfall for fast modes would help
spreading inside the band.
Thank you for reading,
