Kennith,
If you go to this link, Icom
America<http://www.icomamerica.com/en/support/kb/download.aspx?Download=3253>it
will download a map that Icom has of the CQ and ITU zones of the
world.
It is a pretty nice map even though it's a PDF file. Another place to get
good information is At AC6V's site. he has a lot of information on there
for all of us hams. <http://www.ac6v.com/>
OK, not sure why that did that, I've never seen a link do that. :) Enjoy
and have fun.
