FCC Allocates 60-Meter World-Wide Amateur Band Approved at WRC-15; Continues Ama

I actually dig the 60M Band's channelized method, since you don't have to worry about having a QSO and someone just parks +/- 1kHz from you and just operates, obliterating the FREQ that you are using. And, power-wise, you are on par with every other operator, where just 20W can work everyone you hear, and they don't have to be arm-chair-copy at S+20/9 and over. Just my $0.02 worth.

“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
-Attributed to Albert Einstein, but I ripped it from the latest Splatter .PDF March 2025 issue.
