REPLY:

I would like to see some high power JT65 on 160 meters this winter. Perhaps
a small segment of the band should be set aside for that? Like PSK, JT65 is
normally operated with the receiver bandwidth as wide as possible and HP is
normally not welcome. How about the very bottom end, 1800-1803? Not much
going on there. Might be fun to see what JT65 can really do.
