Am I missing something or is this a typo.
Maybe the FCC has opened up a band down at 500KCs that I am not aware of.
There is a lot I am not aware of these days!!

That would be a cool amp to use on 600 meters.

This, John, is just from a quick and preliminary search on 600khz... and
the info is kinda dated, but...

permits close to being issued...
ARRL Applies for 500kHz Experimental License
Group of 23 sites seek to operate in 495-510kHz range.
The American Radio Relay League announced that it filed an application
for a two-year experimental license under Part 5 of the FCC Rules and
Regulations, to "permit experimentation and research between 495 and 510
kHz." Up to 100 watts peak transmitter power (20 watts peak ERP) would
be used. Requested antenna heights range mostly from 12-18 meters; but a
few are in the 22-33 meter range, and the Oregon site requests 43
meters. All are specified as non-directional. Modes listed in the
application are 50 baud CW and PSK31.
Dr. Frederick (Fritz) Raab, W1FR, will manage the project. Participating
sites are located in Arkansas, California, Colorado, Illinois,
Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New
Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee,
Texas, Vermont and Virginia.
This looks interesting... I'm searching for more data, and will send
you in a private email.
This bit should contain enough information so that others out there that
have not heard about it can go in search of more info.
