[50mhz] 6 Meter Packet -- Any??

[Christopher (Chris) W. Boone]

The ARRL "bandplan" if you can call it that, calls for packet
on 50.62 MHz....1200baud FM....below 50.1, CW is the only emission
allowed...true FSK would be better above 50.1 than FM packet since
SN ratios and weak signal would be better in the SSB/FSK mode..
PSK is using 50.29 quite a bit.....and there may be some other
packet channels in use on 6 (I have heard of 51.7? being used...
but that could cause problems to rptr inputs across the country...
bad idea if they are)....Alas, there IS no national bandplan on 6
(or any other band for that matter except maybe the 10FM rptr subband)
THe ARRL one is used in the LEAST amount of the country....the WWARA
plan and the old 1MHz rptr offset bandplan hold the rest of the 
nation.....and packet was hardly intergrated in the old plan..
it IS in the 1.7 Mhz plan (even some duplex channels!)
