1. CW only (probably about 50-75 kHz per band 2. Digital modes only (another 50-75 kHz per band) 3. Phone only (SSB, AM, Hi-Fi SSB, FM, and whatever else) on the rest of the band Each region would be exclusive for the specified modes. This would cut down on cross-mode QRM in general and especially during contests. While not specified above, a small segment of each band reserved exclusively for legacy modes (like AM) would be nice. I suspect that this plan is way too simple for most, but it seems like it would work and it's not that big of change from the way the HF bands are used today. >> 73, Clay W7CE Yes but Clay, THAT would make FAR too much sense. Why... it might actually WORK and make for more peaceful, secure and sensible HF operation! We can't have THAT! ARRL, FCC and the boys at WINLINK will object!
