Hi Mike,
The band that WD2XSH has is 505-510kc. Everything between those freq's.
Th eWE2XGR license has 505-515kc. No channelizing. More modes than a guy
cares to use. Power is set by effective radiated power (ERP). XSH is 20w
ERP & XGR is 200w ERP. The guys run QRP to several kilowatt. Many are
200w to 1kw. Antennas range from a 30' vertical to 100+ foot verticals.
There is one military station that shows up on schedule I believe it is
the 3rd Thursday of the month and sticks around for a few days then is
gone until next month. It's a CW station around Norfolk. That's kind of
a quick run down on what's happening down there. More info at www.500kc.com

Wow!
The /2 station really did sound good... far better than some of the
so-called enhanced ssb stations I've heard.
I've not paid much attention to that experiment, so I don't know how much
power or antenna the participants are allowed.
I figure if we ever do see an allocation near 500 khz, it will be restricted
like the current one at 60 meters. The 60 meter channels, excluding perhaps
channel 3 where the government station is transmitting most of the time,
produce some very good signals, but are much under-utilized now that the new
has worn away.
