[Dxbase] 60 meters

[Larry E Price]

The basic problem is that the Radio Regulations Table of Allocations do not 
allocate any of 60 meters to the Amateur Service! A very small number of 
countries, including USA, have decided to permit amateurs to operate on a 
non-interference basis under RR 4.4.
An actual allocation in the Table to the Amateur Service is NOT on the Agenda of 
WRC-07 nor has  it been proposed at present for the following WRC, likely to be 
not until 2010.
So, within the lifespan of the present iteration of DXbase, 60 meters is 
unlikely to become a "real" amateur band.

| The problem is that 60 meters takes up a valuable column even when hidden.
| This is a DX logging program and 6 meters is a DX band - 60 meters isn't due
| to the massive restrictions placed on it.  All you have to do is make a
| 60MTRS.mdb file and log to that.
