[Elecraft] US 60 Meter Band Changes Approved by FCC - CW Issues

[Fred Jensen]

These are very good discussions.  To add a minor note to Mike's warning 
at the end, US Federal Government Agency rule changes issued late in the 
year [sort of like now] often take some time to appear in the Fed Reg. 
They take vacations around this time too.  Patience here will be a 
virtue.  And there is victory here too!  Many did not think we hams 
could adapt to fairly restrictive channelized HF operation.  That NTIA, 
who manages this spectrum for primary federal government users was 
willing to expand our privileges says a great deal about how we proved 
the doubters wrong.  Let's keep it up.
