Hello Mike,
I understand that for most of us it is just another band. For me this is
very different. In my professional time the 500 kHz was a very important
distress frequency. It is almost unbelievable that we will be able to
use such a frequency for ham radio; very very cool indeed!
Here you can see a photo of me from 1977 when I was operating the 500
kHz during a night shift:
