[50mhz] Simplex below 51 Mhz

[Cboone@earthlink.net]

You CAN put 33range MVPs on any 6mtr freq by just retuning (usually!).
I have done so with my MVP rptr on 6 usign 52.xx in and 53.xx out..
Why not put them on 52.525 where the simplex action is??

Also 50.3 is used for MSCW and 50.29 is PSK...50.4 is AM calling
freq....and 50.8-51.0 is used for model R/C...DO NOT XMIT there
as you could crash a model and/or cause serious harm or injury..

But why not go to 52.525 or other 52 MHz simplex freq?? The MVP
will tune there with no problem.
