I disagree. Thinning out the current density by a factor of 5 would solve a lot of problems, & given the difficulty in constructing a working 10 meter system, I don't think we'd see a large increase in the number of systems should the size of the band be increased. > When the skip closes down, few hams use 10 FM locally. The same is true of every other mode on 10 meters, as well as the other HF bands. Bob NO6B
