I did listen last night around 1800 UTC and found 7100-7200 pritty much filled up. I had very loud stations at: 7105 7120 7135 7145 7160 7170 7180 7190 7200 And possibly weaker ones also but just went for the super loud. Lets see if we see any change next month. 73 Jim SM2EKM

I have been watching this for a few years. 2 years ago I tried to start a campaign to get SWBC stations to move voluntairly. All I got in reply was that their assignments were established by treaty. I would assume that the same applies here and that they will have no choice but to move now.
