[Lowfer] WH2XBA Grant

[Warren K2ORS]

Hello the list,
     Several questions have come up concerning the WH2XBA grant and I 
thought I might address them here.  Bob W2ZM contacted me about applying 
for a grant at the top end of the vlf range (just below 30kHz).
The thought was that the high end of vlf would be a bit less challenging 
than the low end below 9kHz (which is unregulated).

     Some of the usual suspects expressed interest so they were added to 
the application. Also Jim AA5BW - Jim and I have a mutual friend through 
work - Jim is highly capable and  technical and has multiple sites 
throughout the country.   There was some concern that the frequencies 
around 30kHz were unoccupied due to propagation reasons and some thought 
it might be good to go a bit higher, hence the 27-59kHz range, leaving 
clearance for WWVB at the top end.

      The license is for 5W ERP, 27-59kHz, CW and every data mode that I 
could think of.

     The application was filed on January 29 and the license issued on 
February 27 - this was despite some Federal Holidays and closings due to 
blizzards!  So I suspect that it didn't raise too many questions.

      The stations are:
WH2XBA/1    	Bob W2ZM
WH2XBA/2   	Warren K2ORS
WH2XBA/3    	Jay W1VD
WH2XBA/4    	Dex  W4DEX
WH2XBA/5   	Laurence KL1L
WH2XBA/6 /7 /8 etc etc James Plesa AA5BW
