The "Considerate Operator's Frequency Guide," QST page 104  
for Jan 96 lists the following:
1.800-1.830  CW, data and other narrowband modes
           1.810  QRP CW calling frequency
1.830-1.840  CW, data and other narrowband modes,
                     intercontinental QSOs only
1.840-1.850  CW; SSB, SSTV and other wideband modes,
                     intercontinental QSOs only
1.850-2.000  CW; phone, SSTV and other wideband modes
           1.910  QRP SSB calling frequency

I once commented on 1.910kHz SSB calling frequency on
this reflector in disgust.
