[TenTec] 5.2 mhz amateur band

[Patrick Freet]

I have not met a rig yet that I could not modify for use elsewhere in the HF
band. It is a very rare opportunity to gain some fine DX capable frequencies
in this domain. It would be a shame for any licensed HAM not to be all for
this measure.80/75 meters has too much noise and mental illness present
(high end of phone area), and 40 has the popular broadcasters. Something in
between would be superb. Just my opinion.
