Ed,
The rules are quite clear - "80 meters" is now 3.500 - 3.600
and "75 meters" is now 3.600 - 4.000. RTTY (digital) is only
permitted on "80 meters" and phone/image are only permitted
on "75 meters."
The W5 is correct only in that extras may operated between
3.600 - 3.700. However, they are only permitted to use CW,
phone and image emissions in that segment (CW is permitted
on all HF allocations).
73,
... Joe, W4TV
