[600MRG] 630-Meter Special Event Nov. 12

[Edward R Cole]

Apparently JT65A is 356-Hz bw.  I use mainly 
JT65B on 2m-eme and JT65C on 1296-eme which are 
narrower.  From memory JT65B is about 200-Hz.

I have not yet used JT-9 but it is supposed to be 
10% of JT65A bw.  I've heard that Joe Taylor is 
working on a conversational digital mode which 
would allow more than an exchange of callsigns and reports.

But my understanding is that WSJT modes are not 
permitted under the WD2XSH license.  Hopefully 
they can be added in the next license application cycle.

My antenna is still on the ground but will try to 
raise it the next dry day (rains 8 out of 9 days at this of time up here).
I just added 6m-eme at my station so now have 
time to address stuff to get done before winter (snow at 2500-feet already).
