"Lots of other small changes" ??  Jim has a taste for understatement!

There's a lot more than just SSB allocation changes:

-- Shifts in the 80 & 40 meter Novice Bands
-- Expansion of code credit
-- Limitation on vanity call filings
-- New abilities to designate your call en memoriam
-- A LIFTING of most of the "10 meter amplifier ban"
-- Spread Spectrum allowed on 222 MHz
-- Auxilliary Control allowed on 2 meters 
   (Kenwood's Sky Command lives!)

And more... every US ham should take a look at this document, because quite a 
few changes are about to hit the books!  (When?  30 days after publication, as 
Jim noted -- so when are they going to be published?)

This is going to be very interesting!  (Discussion of these changes should, of 
course, take place over on DX-CHAT; I'm just amplifying Jim's announcement, as 
there's more to it than I first thought)
