[MRCA] Moose & Squirrel QSY

[Al Klase]

I've had a couple of questions regarding the reason for the change of 
the primary net frequency.  The rationale is to get onto an even KHz 
carrier frequency so radios like unmodified PRC-47's and PRC-74's can be 
used.  (Yes, I know you can easily pull a PRC-74 500 Hz, IF you have 
perfect pitch.)  Dennis points out the only thing that held this change 
back.  The average ricebox needs to be modified to tune the new 60-meter 
freq recently approved by the FCC.
