This is yet one more loss to the band. Indeed a pity. I had some technical correspondence with Bob when he was starting on LF. But I really don't understand the fuss about MB7LF. I see it as just another tool that is available to the LF amateur. It does not occupy any bandwidth on LF. And if you don't like it, don't use it. As a positive effect I see that 2m listeners who happen to listen to MB7LF may get interested in LF and join our ranks. 73, Dick, PA0SE
