In all fairness, those frequencies are probably not in use yet. But you have no idea if and when they will be. So not good practice to mix 25 kHz and 8.33 kHz frequencies. And most likely illegal anyway.

BTW All controlled frequencies (Mil and Civil) in the Netherlands have been converted to 8.33 kHz already. The only exceptions, for now, are the Amsterdam INFO (124.3) and Dutch Mil INFO (132.35) frequencies. Also, the uncontrolled fields in NL have not yet switched to 8.33. But they will switch soon as the deadline is approaching.
