Rather than trying to bait him, if what he said is so important to you, why don't you go find his comment on the FCC site (that's not difficult) and READ IT ??? I voted to allow this discussion to continue, because despite all the personal attacks, there's been some good information from both s

I think, considering the width of the band, and the little useage it gets, that the whole band plan is stupid. Why not set the botom half of the band for CW and digital and the top half for wide modes such as SSB SSTV RTTY etc. Then split the bottom part with CW in the lower half and other digit

Although the bandplan indicates digital in the 1800 to 1810 sliver, it also permits CW as well. So it is OK to operate CW in that window according to the bandplan. Personally, one would think that they would have followed the convention of CW on the bottom of the band, particularly the higher s
