Bouvet F/H or MSHV ????
« on: January 17, 2023, 11:03:01 AM »

Recent DXpeditions have demonstrated lots of confusion regarding FT8 modes, specifically if F/H or MSHV is being used.  I took a look at the website for the upcoming Bouvet expedition and don't see any indication of what they will be using.
Anybody have any insights?

Nov 10,2022 post on their book of faces

"FT8 operation
FT8 will be F/H only, 4 stations aimed running 24/7 with 100W.
We will NEVER transmit FT8 on regular FT8 frequencies. The 4xFT8 stations can be controlled by 1 operator, or each FT8 station can be controlled individually by an operator running SSB/CW (SO2R) mode.
FT8 will be on 40-10m running 100W, but focus on our 7 yagis 20-10m.
We have chosen FT8/RTTY frequencies that gives us better in band separation, and also so to avoid the most public frequencies that might be occupied by others DX-peditions in F/H mode."

nothing more recent i can find
