Bzzt. What does "top band" mean? 73, doug
Date: Sun, 6 Jul 2008 11:30:58 -0700 (PDT) From: AD6XY - Mike <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I think there is a misunderstanding of the meaning of the word "Band". The higher bands for example refer to the bands in terms of frequency. The 20m band is in terms of wavelength. However, no bands are officially described in terms of wavelength any more. Not since 150m and down! Look at all band plans - even the USA one - and you will find it is defined by frequency. So, the K3 and all other radios are correct.
