Hi All, 

In reply to G4FON's message...I was deliberatly jammed by SSTV signals and a DL who tried to tell me that 3730 - 3740 is not for SSB!.    He then proceeded to jam me for over an hour which invariably left me missing out on some weak callers, I did QSY after a time only to have him follow me.   I didnt have any QRM from music, but after the contest heard a well known contestor doing a bit of bad mouthing which really isnt on.   This is only a hobby lets not forget that chaps. 

Just incase any of the SSTV gang read this here is the IARU Region 1 band plan for 80mtrs. 

      3500 - 3510 Intercontinental DX CW 
      3500 - 3560 CW, Contest preferred segment CW 
      3560 - 3580 CW 
      3580 - 3590 Digimode, CW 
      3590 - 3600 Digimode (packet preferred), CW 
      3600 - 3620 Phone, Digimode, CW 
      3600 - 3650 Phone, Contest preferred segment Phone, CW 
      3650 - 3775 Phone, CW 
      3700 - 3800 Phone, Contest preferred segment Phone, CW 
      3730 - 3740 SSTV & FAX, Phone, CW 
      3775 - 3800 Intercontinental DX Phone, CW 




All good fun though in general and thanks for the QSO's
