Odd that the USCG would care. They ceased guarding 500 kc/s several years *before* U.S. maritime Morse operations ended on 12 JUL 99. I heard that Cuba, and perhaps a couple of other countries, claimed continued use of Morse operations in the 420 to 520 kc/s band and had objected to re-allocation. 73, Mike / KK5F _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
