==BRITISH AMATEURS GET ADDITIONAL 100 kHz ON 40 METERS OCTOBER 31
Starting at 0100 UTC October 31, the 40 meter band in the British Isles
will effectively double in size when radio amateurs there gain access to
7100 to 7200 kHz. Ofcom, the UK telecommunications regulatory authority,
announced the Notice of Variation October 26.
Hmmmm? I guess we are allowed to know about another countries operating priveleges.
You must be jiving us. Otherwise I might be inclined to think that
you're a bit of a dim bulb. You've been told a number of times that
there is a large difference betweening "being allowed" and "being
required" to know.
I've been playing in the CQ Worldwide DX 'test this evening. I've CQ'd
in the American band, announcing a listening frequency below 7.100.
I've not paused a single time to check a lookup table or the internet
before responding to any of those who replied to my CQ. Maybe you
should make an effort to police 75 and 40m over the weekend. Some of
those shifty DX stations may try to pull a fast one.
