I didn't check the rules but I was under the impression that USA could not
call CQ in that portion but that others could. That interpreation being based
upon the relocation of LU novices and other areas to use of that portion. Was
there an actual determination announced.
I know my first QSO mobile enroute to our M/S station was 3V8BB on 28.345.7
with a real nice signal. One call mobile.
