There is no problem with 'living dangerously' as long as it doesn't land you in jail or kill you..:) I usually wait a little before upgrading to the latest and greatest to see what bugs and problems might crop up. As for WSJT, I usually stay back one version revision because I have the same

Going by the ARRL list of privleges, Novice and Technicians can do data from 28.000MHz to 28.300MHz. Cw and Phone from 28.300 to 28.500MHz. 200 watts maximum on either portion. I have been 'told' that PSK modes are around the 28.120 to 28.160MHz range. Am I correct on this? Is this where

James, everyone used to play there because of the old rules. It would seem logical to use the same portion of the band as one uses on other bands , .070 for basic PSK operations. PSKMAIL and other digital stuff may be a little further up so as to avoid CW operations. Andy K3UK On Wed, Nov 4,

Bill: There's plenty of room right now for unattended stations that use the narrowband signals the automated sub-bands were designed and intended for . Asking all hams to give up more spectrum just so a small clique of hams can play at being a third-rate ISP is just asking too much. In the
