Hi Rick,
I've discovered last week that we cannot in Canada transmit wider than 1
kHz on 30m. It's a shame. This band is often in those poor conditions months
the only one opened to mid distant stations and as an HFN pilot station
operator, that's a real problem for me and the stations that want to link to
my station because sometimes it's the only they can link and in this band
only due to conditions. So after sounding for 2 full months on 30m, i only
scan it now.
