Hi Jim,
And welcome back, not jumping the gun here but the point was not be so
eager to give up specturm, uless it's a must and were forced. The idea
is to be aware of others and what others are doing for the good of the
amateur community.
And not just say well I don't use 10 gig so what does it matter to me.
That was the point I was trying to make, not flame comments we all
know there's enought of them around.
