thanks for the translate Terry, I was about to go and try that for myself then saw your post. At least now we know that the JA's are primarily on 144.46 for FT8, not that I will ever get the chance to use that info, my windows of extreme TEP is well and truly closed and FT8 would get too distorted at extreme range (my opinion) so another mode as always would be needed for the QSO and communicating that in a hurry to the far end is a logistical nightmare in this day and age.
There is a lot to be said for the usefulness of the old SSB net on 28.885 MHz that ran hot for many years/decades ( I was a Z call then ) but still clocked up a few cross band contacts by listening there when I was heard in Europe.
Back to my daydreams and chores.
