Folks on 30m, which is only 50kHz wide [1], manage to rub along quite nicely: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/wadei/30m_band_utilization.htm Maybe something like this could serve as a model for top band. -- 73 Ian, G3NRW [1] Of course, 30m is a non-contest band. Once a contest is under way on top band, the swords and daggers are unsheathed and all bets are off. _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw? BK
