[600MRG] 47CFR Part5 Renewals

[Doug Allen]

My 2 year experimental license expired just after we got the 630M and 2200M
bands which I had looked forward to for those two years.  However, just a
few weeks into using our two new ham bands it was evident to me (I kept
very good SNR of stations for 2 years) that some continued to run the same
illegal power, well above 5W EIRP that they used legally as experimental
stations on 630M.  I'm no straight arrow, but as a life long QRPer, one
thing important to me is the integrity of QRP and indicating honestly what
you're running, so I went QRT on 630M and mostly on 2200M too.  I'm
considering applying again for an experimental license because I love
antenna experimentation and propagation studies and would like to operate
again, maybe using higher power than the 5W EIRP.  Can we also apply for
other frequencies like 75 kHz?
