As Doc said, 50 to 50.1 = CW
50.1----and up... 50.101 is the DX window.  50.125 is the SSB calling 
frequency where nearly every one stays until the band opens.  The better 
the opening the higher they will spread out.  There are some beacons 
near the bottom end of the band.

And...I don't have my antennas up for six yet and I worked on the mast 
mounts and winch for the AV640 until nearly 5:00 AM.
Looks like I'm going to be sleeping a good portion of today.
