Yes, in the US, 0.1A1 is permitted everywhere and always has been. One
does often hear the term "CW sub-band" in the context of CW only
however. If you study 47CFR97 closely enough, you'll find that it
doesn't even mention CW when talking about sub-band allocations, except
for 6 and 2. What
I think most people mean and understand "CW segment" as shorthand for "a
segment that allows CW and does not allow phone" -- where you'd typically
go to operate CW.

Those bands have a CW only band, but otherwise there is no real place that
CW is NOT allowed. So CW the CW segements are all the amateur bands. Let's
keep it that way.

You can run a computer, air-conditioner and
television on a generator or even mains power.
This would be correct if the computer was not attached to the rig. Many people
use CAT control which makes logging so much easier,

Very interesting report regarding your FD activities.
I have - although I do not use any more a Moxton Rectangle called a

Nice! I really enjoy hearing about good results with a minimal setup. I was
real pleased with how well the KX3 setup up, ran and then packed away. I
didn't know what to expect but was kept quite busy. It is all about being
on the air. Hope you enjoy the KX2 and the K1 continues to get a workout.
VA3OVQ had an all-Elecraft 2A-Battery operation with a K2/10 and a couple of
KX3s (on 20m and the free-be VHF station on 6m).
We also had one of our members bring along his Winlink/Winmor Setup to send
some emails (bonus points), which also used a KX3.
What impressed me was how well the
