Well nice it would be , that I could
extract 5 w erp from my 40 x 70 ft
inv L , with 100 watts pep drive , I
beg to differ , one of the salient features of
the 600mtr band , would appear to be
excellent ground wave propagation !

Based on experience on 136 where SSB was tried, it's
unlikely to cause any problem to other modes running as the meagre 5W is
dissipated over a much larger bandwidth the energy on any one frequency is
small.
Anyone who is S9+ on SSB at a distance is not running 5W
EIRP!

Hi Colin,
Not too sure what you're getting at. We all have our
individual interests. I hope you're not suggesting the new band should only be
used by obsessive DX CW only enthusiasts?

Just a thought.....when it gets
totally washed out with SSB all 24 hours how are you going to clean it out?
People in general dont follow gentlemen's agreements they were not party
too.....and "it doesnt say I cant in the licence".
I fear that, though what you suggest
would work, it might encourage mayhem.
I agree with Alan. What is wrong with top band for local chats? Or the
acres of unused space on 2m or 70cms? To consider using any form of SSB
on 630m just because it might be technically feasible if sheer lunacy. IMHO
it would kill the band for other modes and the potential for QRM to other
users will be high. As an ex G8 who learned Morse in spite of a
chronic medical condition I would say just get on a do it. The rewards are
well worth the effort. Or maybe effort is a dirty word?
