Effective sometime in November (probably), the 75 and 40-meter phone
bands will be expanded to 3600-4000 and 7125-7300KHz respectively for
stations on the U.S. mainland.


I must not have read that right. Only the first 25 khz of the forty
meter band will be reserved for cw, and that's it? What no-coder thought
this up?
