the majority of hams THAT YOU CAN HEAR on the DX bands are American, the largest number of hams hunting DX are JA.
So maybe the FCC should re-do the US band plan to conform to Japan since that is where the majority of active hams reside.

Those that cant get there, get near. I guess, Brad. I would query why the DX goes that low for PSK, as if they dont know about the US sub bands. If they dont call in the sub-bands we can use, then they are not going to work us DX. (speaking for the other classes of course). It all comes back to what I have been trying to say for decades. We need WORLDWIDE subbands that agree with each other, so these types of things dont happen. We can be hard-headed and not work each other, or we can be agreeable and cuase much less interference. I am sure someone will come back and say that the subbands are a US made problem, but it is still a problem, and frankly, the majority of active hams on the dx bands, are Americans, and the subbands are an attempt at controlling modes and frequencies so all of us will have SOMEPLACE to go.
