I think some folks will be trying out MSK144 meteor scatter
during the June contest. Or at least, I hope they will be. I just
wanted to point out that the informal calling frequency for
MSK144 on 6 meters has just recently changed from 50.280 to 50.260.
The reason for the change is that meteor scatter with FSK441 was
on 50.260 for years, but then along came MSK144. To avoid
conflict with FSK441, the MSK144 guys moved up to 50.280. At this
point, however, FSK441 has all but disappeared on 6m, and there
are a number of JT modes now on 50.270 to 50.300, so it was
informally decided to move MSK144 down to the old meteor scatter
frequency of 50.260.
