''' More people should use WSPR -

That's
not as easy as it sounds , wspr needs a
liner audio to rf carrier frequency
conversion, ...fine if you have a conventional
transverter , mf exciter or ham set that works down to 500/137 ...No
good if you have dividing logic in the amplifier drive
train , vfo controlled or PIC based without the
'ability' to run a wspr generating code set ..
Its a good point worth
making though ...

Mal,
Some suggestions:
- More people should use WSPR - lots of stations (more than 100 at a
time based on 10MHz usage) are able to operate together within just a 200Hz
slice of the band allowing very useful data on propagation and station
performance/changes to be determined. This would leave plenty of room
elsewhere in the band for CW and other narrowband conversational modes.
- Occasional testing with SSB, for those allowed to use it (not UK), is of
interest to me as a listener, but I agree that it's not a good idea to
use this mode when the band is open for really long-distance DX if
interference to weak signals is likely.
- You should try a New Year resolution: "I will be more tolerant and moan
less".
73s and a happy New Year to all on this

I am afraid we have a SSB beacon on 508 kcs
spreading over 3 kcs wide and S9 plus with me. Beacon SM6BHZ is causing QRM to
those of us trying to listen and work the East Coast USA stations. I cannot
understand why a station is licensed to work SSB in such a narrow band
allocation.
The 500 kcs band is a Shambles swamped by
beacons.
Does anyone else have an opinion?
