7) Keeping "CW only" segments is critical.
Unfortunately, mode
allocation is outside the scope of 05-235. I would
encourage
commentors on 05-235 to focus on the code test. However, there

future threats to the CW segments, and whenever the FCC floats a

This is where I point out that there are NOT CW-only segments on HF.
The only CW-only allocations are on VHF (50.0-50.1, 144.0-144.1)
CW is allowed EVERYWHERE. Other modes are currently confined to
restricted subbands.
The key to keeping CW is to use it, IMHO.
