Default CW on 6 meters

Since technicians have access to 6m what is CW on 6 meters like?
Are there alot of techs practicing for their code exams there?
Are there frequencies where they can best practice with each other?



When 6 Mrs is open the CW is usually around 20 wpm, or faster. It is
an excellent band to chat or practice on locally, though. For just
developing skills in QSO at the lower speeds, the old 40 and 80 meter
novice bands are probably still the best place to hang out.
