[Wswss] UPDATE & INFO RE: ARRL June VHF Contest, WEAK SIGNAL VHF CONTESTING & DXing, WSJT software, FSK441 & JT6M

[K6XN]

Team, Thanks to Norm,  KC6ZWT, I have learned that  50.260 MHz and 144.140
MHz are the recommended North America calling frequencies for WSJT and
meteor scatter communications and that lots of useful information including
a capability to schedule meteor scatter communications with other stations
can be found at   http://www.pingjockey.net/cgi-bin/pingtalk  .

 

Thanks again Norm! 73, Ted, K6XN

Team, for those of you who will be using WSJT software for enhanced meteor
scatter communication in the upcoming June ARRL VHF Contest, what are the
frequencies that you will be active on within the 50 MHz and 144 MHz bands?
If you will also be using JT6M for improved ionospheric scatter
communications on 6M which frequencies will you be active on within the 6M
band?   Are there scheduled nets wherein people can meet to check out their
FSK441 and JT6M computer processing setups before the contest?   Thanks,
Ted, K6XN
