Out west in flyover country we rue the day. Tom is spot on. I too stay out
of 30-35 for CQing so my western brethren can potentially hear something.
Very unfortunate to have the 30-35 window, which many DX stations use,
clobbered by a very few thoughtless W CQ'ers.
I didn't realize recognition of the window is a has been. Out here, not
the case.
This was done a long time ago.
I'd bet the different experiences of east coast stations dominated the
decision to get rid of the "no USA transmit" DX window. Strong signals near
DX is much less of a problem out east.
