Not sure what your point here is.   You clipped only part of my sentence.

I'm not aware of any ARRL contest recommendation regarding SSB and 7040, maybe you could point me in the right direction.   I think you're confusing CQWW rules where there is an attempt by some in Europe to enforce an IARU Region I bandplan.   There is nothing specific about 7040 in the CQWW rules either.
