I've posted information about it at www.zerobeat.net If you operate CW at low poer levels, you really should read the material. As part of the ARRL's continuing look at possible recommendations for changes to the FCC rules governing amateur radio, there is a proposal to have small segments of the various HF bands where wider-band (3 kHz) bandwidth data modes could be used (WinLink is only one of the data modes which could make use of this). While nothing has been formally proposed yet and the details being discussed have changed a bit over the past year or so, the current thinking of the ARRL board is that the 3 kHz bandwidth would be permitted not over the whole 30 meter band but only between 10.135-10.150 kHz (see http://www.arrl.org/announce/ec_minutes_475.html) where I doubt there is much, if any, CW activity (data modes are currently permitted on the whole band, but tend to exist at the upper end--the proposed changes would LIMIT wider bandwidth to this region). Unfortunately there is much innacurate information being circulated about these proposals. I see it as a positive thing, not a threat and certainly not the end of the world. Most countries have much less regulation of modes and bandwidth than does the U.S. and IMHO a loosening of our rules should be viewed as a positive thing. 73, Bob, N7XY ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Thom, OK, I may be dense, but I opened the page you referenced and nothing hit me in the face about 'unpleasant surprize' and '30 meters'. Can you be more specific - I just don't have the time to look through all the links on that page to find what you seem to be inferring. 73, Don W3FPR -Original Message- If you use 30 meters for CW there may be an unpleasent surprize on the horizon.
