[Milsurplus] New MF Amateur Band Approved at WRC - 472 to 479 kHz

[B Smith]

Reading the fine print below  .  .  .  does this mean we can bump up 
the EIRP to 5 watts? That would be quite a bit of input power? 
Perhaps 1 or 2 KW? Looks like some of the ole broadcast transmitters 
may find their way down to 472-479 Kcs.
