Zack,

      Technically speaking there is no new allocation, only an 
experimental license. (Just as there is no allocation for 137kHz or 600 
meters, only experimental licenses.)
       See my earlier e-mail to the list with the Subject: WH2XBA Grant, 
if you can't find it contact me directly and I'll forward a copy.
