With many internet sites providing conflicting operating frequency information for PSK31 and its variants the above table has been prepared based on proposed frequencies presented at the official PSK31 web site http://aintel.bi.ehu.es/psk31.html and review of the Radio DX Summit database http://www.dxsummit.fi/Search.aspx  presented by Arkala OH8X DX sports station http://www.radioarcala.com/  

Frequencies that represent the stand out operational activity are shown in bold.  

The proposed frequencies for PSK31 and recorded activity in the above table for the 160 and 80m bands is inconsistent with Australian band plan for these frequencies. The Australian band plan for the 160m band has the frequency range of 1800 - 1810kHz and the 80m band has the frequency range of 3620 - 3640kHz assigned for digital modes including PSK31. For more details refer to the Wireless Institute of Australia. http://www.wia.org.au/
