Danny, It depends upon the politics of the country. As a farmer, and one who follows this kind of thing fairly closely, it is clear to me that there is currently enough food to go around although there is going to come a time where we simply can not support the world population which is

OK let me chime in as a long time 6 meters user ... FIRST .. NO ONE OBJECTS TO DIGITAL MODES . In fact they do have a place in this hobby however the problem as we see it is the tiying up of large amounts of space ( 200 ver 3 kHz ) on bands that ARE widely used and do cross borders.

Bonnie, Agree completely. It makes little sense to give AM such special treatment at the expense of shutting down future digital technical developments on HF. Power masking! Very interesting approach to a solution for the dilemma. The HSMM WG still has one final report to submit by the EOY.

Last weekend, or was it the one before, during a RTTY contest, I heard them as low as 14.055 , and smack dab inside the PSK portion around 14.060 upward. When there are contests every other weekend of one kind or the other, that doesnt leave many free weekends for those who still have jobs during

It may be that the FCC is preparing hams for voice meaning any human voice equivalent including digital or analog. My view is that some modes don't play very well together, but when it comes to wide band digital modes, we are now at the point that all kinds of content can be inside a digital

Well John, I am not asking YOU to please me, just the FCC which might be as tuff. HI. None of them are a God given right. It just seems to me, when there are common internationalareas on a band, on which have become used by a particular mode, the FCC would be nuts to suddenly tell us we

In a sense, the FCC has hoist digital users on their own petard. With PSK-31 being so popular, the need for lots of space is questionable. Likewise, the competition for space is not as great with the most narrow modes, i.e. less qrm. In order to show the FCC more space is needed, digital folks
