Andrei,
Please provide a reference to any EU law that says that SSB below 7040 is
illegal.
Thus far, all that have been cited are non-binding "band plans" or
"gentlemen's agreements".
While it may annoy some that these band plans or agreements are ignored a
couple of times during the year in the largest contests, there remains no
illegal activity here and therefore no violation has occurred.
This baseless debate has once again become tiresome. Do we need to go
through this same pointless discussion year after year?
73,
Bob W5OV

I was always wondering why many stations using 40 meters band working SSB on
or about 7.020 - 7.007 MHz for example? Regardless of geographical
locations.
As fas as I am aware, the *lowest frequency allowed for SSB mode is 7.040
MHz* in all Countries, this is like a small segment of that so called
"universal Plan"...
Isn't this a reason to DQ such violators?
