Default 40 Meter Phone - and How Time Flies

Just noted a new thread over on eham.net about how SWBC is supposed to
vacate 7100-7200 kc. Which will make 40 meters much more usable for
'phone, particularly at night. It will also hopefully take some
pressure off 7000-7100, because non-US Region 2 hams on 'phone won't
need to go below 7100 to get away from SWBC QRM.

The thing that got me was that the change goes into effect March 29,
2009 - less than 8 months from now! I remember reading about it back
in 2003 and thinking "that's years away...."
