> parties or the like given in this issue of the Rate Sheet.
> For sure during the upcoming WPX RTTY contest the narrow
> Region 1 40m RTTY segment will be full with powerful RTTY
> from Europe and NA stations trying to work each other.
> The conflict with US CW operators is preprogrammed.
> I feel it would be a great idea to appeal to the CW party
> or contest organizers to move their preferred 40m CW
> frequency elsewhere in the wide Region 2 40m band.
