Very true, Bill.
There is plenty of space, we (RTTYers) just need 20 KHz or so around 1808.
I am sure that here is a high time to include 160 meters RTTY into NAQP
RTTY, to start with and see how it goes... I do not think that organizers of
NAQP are willing to add 160 meters though.
TARA on 160 would be a good start in any event.
