ARLB025 W1AW to change its 80-meter digital frequency
In response to the expansion of the 75-meter phone band down to 3600 kHz, W1AW will shift its 80-meter digital bulletin frequency down to3597.5 kHz, effective Friday, December 15, 2006.
The new frequency will be in use beginning with the regularly scheduled 6 PM EST (2300 UTC) digital bulletin on Friday December 15, 2006.
The old 80-meter digital frequency (3625 kHz) has been in use forwell over two decades. The expansion of phone privileges on 75 meters (as part of Report Order, WT Docket 04-140 (FCC 06-149)) prompted the change.
A possible change in the 80-meter CW frequency is being considered.
