[ADXA] VP2VI 60 Meter CW

[w5znjoel at gmail.com]

Just a reminder to the ADXA folks about VP2VI and 60 meter CW. Last night
when they were on CW, they were transmitting on a frequency NOT authorized
for USA and lsning on a frequency NOT authorized in the USA to transmit on.
There was a brief period where they did lsn on 5348 KHz where USA can
transmit, but only for a very brief period. 

 

So, PLEASE do NOT transmit outside of the five discreet fixed frequencies
authorized in the USA (like some USA stations were doing last night)! That
is a clear FCC regulatory violation. Hopefully in the near future the FCC
will authorize US hams access to the new 60 meter allocation authorized at
WRC19, but the standoff now is the FCC wants to eliminate the five discreet
channels to give us access to the 15 KHz or so bandwidth. The ARRL wants
(and I fully support the ARRL position) is we should be granted access to
the new allocation and retain the five discreet frequency channels.
