Which is pretty disappointing, with digital modes starting at 7040, while 
on 20, for example, they do not begin until 14070.  I'm also not thrilled 
to see unattended digital data devices at 7050-53, and SSB down to 7060.  I 
guess we'll have to rely on peer pressure to get some relief, at least 
until 7200-7300 reverts to amateur use (in ?).
