And then the spectrum vultures will come.

I don't know how valuable those little slivers of spectrum the hams have
above 30Mhz are, but the VHF-lo band isn't real active, and I'd think that
will fill up before the ham bands are threatened.

Most of the commercial HF users are gone to satellite, and the propagation
over the last few weeks again confirms the wisdom of that move. This isn't
1950, and I really doubt that a few Mhz of goofy HF propagation has a high
commercial value anymore.
