Joe,
As I said to Jim, Canadians, no more than the US or any other ham
jurisdiction want or need special consideration or "private frequencies". We
operate within the limits of our licence and regulations while generally
adhering to the internationally accepted band use norms.
What I was pointing out was that Canada and all the other 335 DXCC entities
will operate where they can most effectively communicate while experiencing
and creating minimal interference. That may well be below or above the more
congested spectrum occupied by US hams.

Jim,
Most digital operation (except PSK) uses narrow filters.
Moving the significant number of domestic traffic nets and
digital operations that exist between 3600 and 3650 below
3600 will represent a serious problem for all three groups.
I agree with you about Canadian attitudes to US phone - it
is inexcusable for a few thousand licensees to expect private
frequencies on a shared global resource. There has never been
any justification for the elitist attitude.

I don't see the problem with moving the digitalsw down below
3600. Those
modes are narrow-banded and don't occupy the space a phone
signal does.
Neither does CW. For the digital operators I would suggest
they narrow up
their I.F.'s to prevent them from copying adjacent signals,
after all PSK
only occupies 30 hZ and the other digital modes a little
more. Who says the
Canadians need protection from U.S. QRM (only the Canadians).
We here have
dealt sucessfully with QRM from each other for generations.
The Canadians
on many occasions in the 50's and 60's prevented expansion of
our fone
bands. If you don't remeber this, you haven't been a ham as
long as I.
Digital may be in, but fone is where it's at.
