Guess I must have missed something. I haven't heard they were adding a
100 kHz to the band. A brief web search on this topic showed nothing.
Even if it was true, why would the ARRL be a "loser" when one of our ham
bands is expanded?

then the ham clowns can goof around and play Disc Jocky all they want,

Sorry, I miss the connection. If somebody wants to be a disc jockey, I
would think they would just do it anyway -- without waiting for the band
to be expanded. And it doesn't necessarily have to be just hams that are
playing DJ.

the arrlosers are the losers when the f¢¢ says we don't give a **** it's
your problem now.

Well, I don't know about the ARRL being losers; I would think that all
hams are the losers.

Also, don't overlook that it takes money for the FCC to monitor. It
seems the conservatives are putting the squeeze on federal funds.
Because of budget cutbacks, the FCC is closing 10 or 11 of its field
offices. With less staff and fewer monitoring sites, you are right --
the FCC may have to use their now limited resources on bigger problems
than some kid playing disc jockey for an hour.

Of course you say look at all the number of new ones appearing each day, hey
than along comes the f¢¢ looking for money and says to the arrlosers/boy
scouts the 40 meters is not now,
but we can get rid of the "pirate" problem by extending to 6900kHz.. WOW!
what a blow out for the arrlosers/boy scouts ! Now those ham/boy scout
clowns and (without proof they have to be) other clowns can now goof around
all they want just like CB radio, since we the f¢¢ don't give a **** it's
your problem we have bigger problems finding more money.
