[Elecraft] Reaching Across the Chronological Divide

A number of years ago [probably more than comes to my mind], someone 
published a table of sub-allocations for 75 meters derived from its 
nickname, "The Medical Band," not to be confused with "Medicine Band," 
an 80's band from Los Angeles playing "noise pop."  All who know what 
noise pop sounds like please raise your hand.

I don't remember the details but I know there was a sub-band reserved 
for diseases of the digestive tract with a sub-sub-band allocated for 
persistent heartburn and belching.

And, yes, the art of the rag chew seems to be fading.
