Hi Take san,
I am currently gathering information for revised suggested working
frequencies, thanks for your input. This will be rolled out alongside a
capability to set different working frequency suggestions per IARU
region. I understand that your local band plan does not allow any
operation between 3575kHz and 3599kHz. For now, as I think is already
happening, those outside JA that wish to work JA stations can either add
or amend the WSJT-X suggested working frequencies table as you suggest
above.
I will add these changes to the new suggested working frequencies, at
least for region 3. If there are no other clashes in other regions I
will try and convince all users that a change for all on 80m is best. As
far as I can see there is no high level band plan restriction for the
frequencies used on 80m in Japan in all three regions, it will take more
time to ensure that no other data modes are using those sub-bands globally.
