There is nothing there that is harmful to CW in the least.


Imagine this. Imagine all the CW and digital NTS traffic nets that now
operate in the 150KHz between 3600 and 3750, relocated down to the 75KHz
between 3525 and 3600. Imagine all the PSK and RTTY operators also
relocated down there. Imagine the Canadian SSB nets migrating down
there to avoid the US extras and Advanced. Imagine the folks already
operating there welcoming them with open arms --- NOT!. Then imagine
it is a domestic contest weekend, like SS or FD!

What could be the harm to CW?

CW ops can carry on as before since that is legal in all parts of the band.
They may now choose to spread out a bit instead of staying in the
traditional area.

Same with the NTS CW traffic nets.

It will be the digital guys who feel cramped.

Sweepstakes (voice) and FD only occur once a year each so not a significan
issue. Besides that, FD is all modes so the bands get nearly full top to
bottom anyway.
