Why?

(A) It's not a "band". It's five discreet channels.

Why is it called 60 Meters? is 60 meters a discrete frequency?

(B) The mode restriction is due to other adjacent channel users
that we must dovetail with...Not due to any altruistic debate over
Morse Code use or testing.

Wrong answer. A CW signal would dovetail nicely given the allocated
bandwidth. So why not CW?

The 5Mhz channels still fall below 30Mhz.

So what?

Is it a newsflash to you that S25.2 has changed?

There is NO LEGAL magic at 30Mhz there was but no more

Sure there is.

YOU need to read how it's worded.

The international treat gives individual administrations the
OPTION of requiring code testing.

Gotta love those International "Treats." Better than smores.

The FCC's reply to the question was that S25.2 required it.
The PCTA's answer to the question was that S25.2 required it.

Guess what...?!?!

The United States is in compliance with the treaty.

Arbitrary licensing requirements are still a problem.

The treaty no longer requires such arbitrary licensing requirements.

More Robeson Wrongness snipped.
