[Elecraft] re: 5MHz report

[Dave Sergeant]

Details of the UK allocation at 5MHz can be found on the RSGB web 
site at http://www.rsgb.org/licensing/fivemegs/fivemegs.htm together 
with the detailed conditions of the NOV (some of which are a little 
daunting.  Five 3kHz channels centred on 5260, 5280, 5290, 5400, 
5405.

I had a listen last night (but will have to wait for the K2 mod 
before transmitting) and there seems plenty of activity.  The NOV 
appears to encourage SSB as the primary mode and there is no one 
channel exclusively for CW.  I did hear a couple of CW stations last 
night, but most of the activity appears to be SSB (unfortunately...).
