Bill,
I have one question for you and Jeff to answer:
Why did you submit this petition for mode segmentation prior to the ARRL
bandplan taking effect?
How could you possibly tell the ARRL bandplan would be ineffective in
reducing cross-mode interference on 160m if you didn't give it time to be
implemented and observe the results?
My support hinges on your answer.
