Good idea, make that 1.805Mhz. You have to deeply respect ops on 160m running 5watts; give them some room. 40 meters is a mess. 7.040 is the CW QRP and the RTTY calling freq.

If 40 meters is any indicator, those guys often use pretty broad receivers. I'd suggest we stay a little farther away, say 1805. 4 kHz will make little difference with SWR but a big difference with receiver overload.
