[CQ-Contest] 40m "new" approach to staying in the band?

[John Laney]

Well, one reason to continue to use LSB on 40 is that there are still a 
significant number of mostly older rigs in use that do not have 
selectable sidebands.  The only SSB available on a given band is the one 
usually used.  Most of us want to work everyone we can.  The addition of 
less than 3 kHz of usable frequencies on a band is probably not a good 
enough reason to change the side used on that band and risk losing QSOs 
with hams still using those rigs.  73, John, K4BAI.
