You know the most frustrating thing ?
trying to move a European station off the call freq when someone is rag 
chewing on 50.125  like a repeater.
I too have no ideal why its done the way its done. Maybe because it can go 
from a local freq to dx in a matter of seconds?  and then back just as fast.
I cant tell you how many Countries I have picked up by monitoring the band. 
or grid squares for that matter.
to bad people are forgetting how to qsl.

It's just wierd Rich because six meters has always been a band where it's 
been unclear exactly what is where.  For example ten and two meters were 
very easy for me to figure out an FM simplex calling freq.  On six it's a 
matter of region or opinion.  Perhaps you can tell me the history of this 
lack of concensus?
Even my "Icom hamfest bandplan" shows many different "calling frequencies" 
for the same mode.  Maybe these plans were made before VHF propagation was 
taken seriously?
