According to a just-released ARRL news item:

"The new five-channel 60-meter amateur allocation becomes available to 
US Amateur Radio operators at midnight local time on July 3. The FCC 
Report and Order (R&O) granting the allocation was published in the 
Federal Register, which announced the effective date today. The local 
time designation means that amateurs in the US territory of Guam likely 
will be the first to get a crack at the new band. "

Does that mean when I wake up on the morning of July 3 I could operate, 
or is it really the next day?

Time to get everyone's K2's ready to go! It's just a little mod, right?
