Warren I suggest 187.5 khz. This is an integer division of 6mhz. With 
an oven the freq could be manipulated to scatter out the stations 
around the new watering hole. I dont think you would bother me at 
187.492, but I am planning to move to the 185.3 watering hole anyway , 
or maybe near WEB at 189950 +/- a hz or two. I will have better 
stability when I make any move. With inexpensive DDS available now this 
may be a moot point. I suggest this so others may join you, as on 
137khz. 

Check the catalogs for a common microprocessor freq that, with an 
integer division ,will fall into 160-190hz range. 

I dont see why part 15 and part 5 cant co-exist, I copy WEB( and did MO 
when he was on) with 150 ft of separation between my rec and tx 
antennas and opposite side band suppression on rec. Two out of state 
signals of the different levels shouldnt bother each other. Maybe those 
close to you could run desensing trials to check. 

One watering hole for part15 and one for part 5 is ok. 187.5 and 185.3 
could be copied with a 2.5 to 3.0 khz bandwidth using the dual argo 
screen technique. Another consideration is to make reception available 
to those with 100 or 10 hz resolution. 

Good luck, I will be looking foward to hearing(seeing?) you.
