Hey Mike,

I would certainly like to get on the new band aswell.
What I was wondering is what are the chances of the new band being allocated
before your FCC petition was granted?

I spoke to John Hennesey at the ARRL a few days ago and he said he would
email the League's contact in Washington to see if any progress has been
made.  When the answer comes back from him I will post it here.

Was hoping for this season but probably not.  Wait is there still a LOWFER
season?
Didn't a bunch of guys on here prove this band is workable(to some extent)
all year round.
