As an AM fan (on 10m and 2m) I am also disappointed that the RSGB has still not acknowledged that 10m AM has/is actually been centred 29-29.1MHz for as long as I can remember. According to the RSGB the all-mode section starts at 29.1MHz: I've never worked an AM station in the last 20 years except between 29 - 29.1MHz, and there are plenty to be worked.

The 144.55MHz AM "centre of activity", which has been in common, if not great, use for several years is still just a begrudging footnote, whereas FAX calling (who uses FAX???) has a dedicated 2m frequency.

It seems that those making these bandplans never operate!

Rant over and now to get WSPR-15 set-up on 472kHz.

I was surprised to see on page 9 of the latest RSGB RadCom under '2013 Band Plans', a statement re the 472 - 479kHz band:- "Activity is limited to modes with 500Hz bandwidth or less". The implication here is that this is what Ofcom has specified, especially as in the sentence before it refers to the Notice of Variation. As such, the statement is quite misleading and untrue.

Who at the RSGB has decided on this new rule? Why does the RSGB feel the need to impose such a rule? It looks like they are dictating to the membership, rather than representing them. Frankly a bit of a cheek.

I note later in 'LF' by Dave, G3YXM, on page 55, the correct statement is made, referring to the only change in the licence conditions being the power limitation.

Come back Pete (FMT)! All is forgiven!!
