How about Megahertz?


Well, when I have a specific instance in mind I type out the frequency
but in this case I was tuning through the bands and recalled that I
heard Brother Stair in passing through them but did not stay to listen
so I generalized that I heard him on certain bands. I did not note the
specific frequencies that I heard him on. The bands are noted by meters
not frequency so you must then have a frequency definition of the SWBC
bands.


Er, what's wrong with using "The 7 MHz Band" instead of "The 39 Meter
Band" (or 41 or whatever number is used). A quick look in the FCC
regulations (Part 73 subpart F) shows that officaldom doesn't bother
with meter band designations.

To bring this back to WWCR or whoever is running in the 3 MHz band,
what regulations are they operating under? My (older, 1989) copy
of the broadcast regs says that international broadcasting starts in
bands above 5950 kHz. (73.702f)
