Hi Ed.  Do you know if a serious proposal (ie, rules) has ever been
posted ?   I agree its been a lot of talk, good talk, but the devil is in
the details .... or in this case, the rules.  As I have posted before any
such rules have to be written such that they are enforceable and
understandable, and take into account the unique issues of all the VHF
bands from 6m through Light.  Also, most likely, logging software would
have to be updated.  Perhaps its time for less talk and more pen to paper -
if its such a good idea, lets see some proposals.
