They don't entirely skip certain bands that are used for international broadcasting -- e.g., 5800- 5900, 7400 - 7600, 9900 - 9995, 11500 - 11600. ________________________________ From: Hard-Core-DX <hard-core-dx-boun...@hard-core-dx.com> on behalf of Zack Widup <w9sz.z...@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, July 20, 2023 11:41 PM To: Bill Smith <smth...@hotmail.com>; hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com <hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com> Subject: Re: [HCDX] Shortwave Modernization Coalition FCC Petition
They skip the ham bands, like so many other services do. I used to work with a vertically-incident ionosonde that scanned 2.0 through 30+ MHz. It was programmed to skip the ham bands and the WWV frequencies. But it only stayed on a given frequency for such a short time that I doubt it caused any interference. The HAARP facility also used frequency-scanning transmissions that skipped over the ham bands.
