There's only a recent NPRM before the FCC for that band, but US authorization is unlikely in the near future...if ever. One hopes for quick FCC authorization for the 472 to 479 kHz band that WARC approved in 2012: http://www.arrl.org/news/amateur-radio-gets-secondary-mf-allocation-at-wrc-12 This MF band should be most interesting...a link back in radio history. New improved and fully-assembled Palomar Engineers VLF converters appear to be available through K1EL Ham Radio Kits. See: http://k1el.tripod.com/VLF.html . I use a US Navy AN/WRR-3B receiver for 14 to 600 kHz reception. 73, Mike / KK5F ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
