DEAR TYLER,
I apologize....not 30, but only 20 khz are allowed here in Italy....for
mistake I press key "3" instead of "2"....hi...so you can find italian
stations from 1830 to 1850, but for IT9 (Sicily) only from 1830 to 1845...sigh
Now can you understand why do you copy italian stations CQ's on DX Window?
From 1840 to 1850 phone, so Cw is from 1830...(hi) to 1840....this situation
penalizes much our scores on 160 meters contest's although you can hear I
stations answering, or worse CQ's below 1830, but they make so with high
risk to see their licences withdrawn by our FCC....
Shame on me..for error.
