Almost ALL countries outside of the Americas ONLY have 7.000 to 7.100

Considering the WPX is on, the USA hams are operating splits like
7024/7220, why not put that nice rig to work earning a few qso's instead
of complaining about the rest of the world? (and learn a bit more about
it too)

Because I like operating CW, not SSB. I got into HF for CW, not SSB.

There are no contests on the WARC bands, 30M, 17M, and 12M
And 30M is all CW or Data -- no phone.

A DXer reported working the FT5XO Dxpedition on 30M with just three calls
last night.
If you are going to work CW -- get some good antennas in the CW bands.

If noise is a problem on 80 or 160M, make a low noise receiving loop.
