WSPR beacons below 10m are no exception. They must be attended.

It is interesting that the FCC prohibits automatic beacons below 28.2 MHz -  except if they are running RTTY or digital.  This has always seemed to me to be an odd exception. I remember the rationale for it from a few decades ago, but I always think 'why some modes and not others?' 

Mind you, I personally enjoy this exception to operate my WSPR beacon on 630 meters.  But logically the rules seem inconsistent.
