For those interested, I used the channel settings below for the 1642 UTC pass of BY70-1. I was able to complete two QSO and I could hear a number of other stations. It was a busy pass!

Greetings,
I'm looking at setting up my hand-held radios to attempt to work BY70-1. Given that my radios have a minimum step size of 2.5 KHz, I'm trying to set them up to account for the frequency sensitivity of BY70-1. I am going to use the channel set listed as follows:
CH RX TX TX Tone BY70-1 436.2100 145.9175 67 Hz BY70-2 436.2075 145.9175 67 Hz BY70-3 436.2050 145.9175 67 Hz BY70-4 436.2025 145.9200 67 Hz BY70-5 436.2000 145.9200 67 Hz BY70-6 436.1975 145.9200 67 Hz BY70-7 436.1950 145.9225 67 Hz BY70-8 436.1925 145.9225 67 Hz BY70-9 436.1900 145.9225 67 Hz
Does anyone see anything errant is this plan, such as a shift in the base TX or RX frequencies? If so, please let me know. Otherwise, I hope that this channel set may be useful to others.
