[CW] Fw: 3600-3700 frequencies

[Ron Zond]

Charlie and others

"...higher class ops not wanting to desert their buddies" points to a
practice
that has been the hallmark of 75 meters, namely, the "crystal controllled
VFO".
Hopefully, the influx of new Generals will repopulate the band, but it won't
happen
overnight. In the interim, we should should work to get more space for the
burgeoning
digital operators. I hear lots of digi sigs on the high end of th 80 "CW"
band, and they
need  the room.

Hello Scott:

1.Thanks for your time monitoring the 3600-3700 mostly wasteland.

2.I dont have any data to add except that there have been a few AM stations
   trying to establish a new calling frequency in different spots.

3.The absence of other signals is clearly (in my opinion)due to higher class
   stations not wanting to desert their buddies on the remaining
frequencies.

   This also points out the reluctance of the lower class ops to upgrade.
   Who could blame them? There is virtually no one there to work anyway.

4.I am sure ARRL would be interested in your data.

73, Charlie,  K0NG  ..
