>From a Canadian prospective, our license allows us to use any mode anywhere in our allocated amateur bands. There are "recommendations" from our national organization, RAC, but these are just that, recomendations. To date Canadian amateurs have generally operated as per the RAC recommendations but during contests, more flexibility is excersised.

The USA already HAS use of this part of the band. I guess us Europeans will populate it with SSB and let the CW end of 40 creep up to maybe 7.050 with Digi modes between 7.050 and 7.070 - but who knows, the Germans or the Italians may have other ideas...... 73 de tom GM4FDM :-) ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Warren" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, July 11, 2003 6:58 PM Subject: [DX-CHAT] Need 40M Info > I'm trying to better understand the current amateur uses of the > 7100-7150 range. > > I know it's Novice/Tech-Plus CW territory.
