   Since it is said the Japanese Loran A system (QRG=1,850kHz) will end 
on 10-March-1997,  hopefully, we JAs are expecting to get another wider 
band on 1,820-1830s. 

   So far as I know, it's no official announcement on the new 160M band-
width from the authorities yet. 

   Some other JA folks may have good news.   Will it be bad news to the 
rest of the world ?? 

   After 10-March, I won't ask as follows; 
Loran A pulse signals cause bad QRM on 1,850 +/- 20kHz to JA land. 
Then, lower QRG than 1,830kHz is better for JA. 

73 !                   de  Yosi- JA3AAW
