...I agree that we need to have a smaller
CW subband, say 50 KHz on each band due to the nunber of users of CW.
Then lets use the same logic in selecting an AM band. Based on the
number of active AM'ers, how many KHz do you think we deserve??
Charlie,
I think we need to get away from the subband mentality altogether. The last
thing we need is to further chop up the bands for an "AM subband". That
implies that we would be RESTRICTED TO those subband frequencies. If AM got
a subband, then SSTV, PSK31, RTTY and all the other modes would want one as
well.
I say let's go the way of Canada and most of the rest of the world. Get rid
of subbands altogether - by mode AND by licence class. Let all the bands be
like 160 is now. It has worked pretty well without subbands the past 20
years or so since LORAN restrictions were lifted.
