If I had a list of fishnet beacon manufacturers and distributors, followed by some relevant suggestions by Topbanders (posted to this list rather than being sent directly to me), I would be willing to create a page on my web site so that others can find the beacon manufacturers' addresses and have a general idea of what to say in their letter to them. The ARRL should be notified of this problem too, don't you think? 73, Mike www.w0btu.com On Tue, Oct 2, 2012 at 5:07 PM, Rick Stealey <[email protected]> wrote: > Don't you wonder what would happen, if 500 Topbanders all wrote a NICE, > POLITE email to all the manufacturers of these devices, and in, say, 5-10 > sentences or less simply asked them if they would mind excluding 1.8-2 MHz > because it ANNOYS THE HELL (oops, I mean.......) it makes it difficult for > us to continue with our propagation studies? > > I mean, what would it hurt?
