I consider the upper freeband to be from 25Mhz to 30Mhz... at least, I have
heard freebanders all across that 5Mhz bandwidth...

I think I have been both, freebander/ham, all I think I have seen is that
the freebanders have more fun.

Also, I think the radio spectrum is for the use of all, there needs to be
a
good slice of radio spectrum set aside for freebanders, indeed, set aside
for "We the People!"

Unfortunately, the hams have just become a self-serving bunch holding
much
of the spectrum to their hobby... they like nice clear spaces of spectrum
where they and a few buddies carry on conversations like old women around
a
bridge table.

Unless one feels himself a child who needs a parent telling them what
they
CAN'T do--it is time for a change of thinking here...

I think the FCC needs to support radio use amongst the citizens of this
country, not a self-serving group who feel themselves more deserving and
special... I think we all need a better form of radio spectrum use--one
which conforms to the people, NOT makes the people conform to ridiculous
rules...

And, I think a whole lot more... but basically it all revolves around my
seeing hams as self-serving/control-freaks who have a good thing
going--and
are getting away with it...

I thought freeband was from 26.000 MHz up to channel 1, 26.965
MHz, and from above channel 40, 27.405 MHz, to the edge of the 10
Meter ham band, 28.000 MHz.

What does that have to do with Ham radio spectrum use?

Quit doing so much thinking, you're going to hurt yourself...
