 all this discussion about the non contest zone on 10 meters is going to 
be moot soon anyways. The FCC is going to get rid of the Novice and 
Tech+ one way or another and there will be no more novice/tech subbands. 
either we will all be made General Class ( if the ARRL get their way) or 
we will be orphaned from the FCC and have all of the General class CW 
area on 10,15,40 and 80 and all the 10 meter band on SSB.
 Either way there will be plenty of room for non contesters and no need 
for a non contest window
 I a lot of people are going to be upset about this no matter what the 
FCC decides but it is coming and both the ARRL and the FCC are pushing 
for it. most likely by the time next year or or the year 2000!
