PSK on FM??? That sounds like an oxymoron...why would someone use a weak
signal mode on a NON weak signal mode?
And yes that is inside the FM/rptr subband.....which again makes no
sense....
Sounds like someone has chosen a freq out of thin air and never thought it
through..Forget using FM with PSK....it wont work any better than FM voice..
As for packet, 50.62 - 50.70 is a good place to program...(20 kHz
steps)..it's too bad there is not a national FM/packet bandplan on 6...if
any band really needs one, 6 is it!
(Of course I have my favorite....it is shown on the 6mt.com web site)
FM voice - of course, put 52.525 simplex in them....and whatever local rptr
channels are in your area.
