There have been some OO Notices sent out to people operating SSB in
the lower part of 160m. The issuer claimed that there's a 'band
plan' on 160m. It was supported up to the enforcement level, and
when it was pointed out to me (and others) I (and I'm sure others)
wrote the enforcement buearu saying that there -isn't- such a thing
as a 'band plan' on 'Top band'. I think it was all eventually dropped.

Not only that, but an official notice (apology) was issued in that case.

Quick, someone... hand me my nitro tablets. The Enforcement Agency at
the FCC did something 'right'!

Actually, they've been pretty good. I think this example was one of
relative few in which the Enforcement beauro was a bit over-zealous.
All in all, I'd have to say they're doing a pretty fair job.
