If you have an Extra Class license you didn't lose of CW
privileges. If you don't, then you did.
On weekends with major CW contests, the TEX traffic net
moves to our old frequency of 3643 KHz, but we do that only
occasionally, because not all of our net participants have
Extra Class licenses, and we don't want to leave anyone out.
I've been hanging out around 3579.545 KHz; the Colorburst
frequency, with a mint tin rig. If any of you hear me, give
me a call.
