RAC Draft Band Plan: Thanks to RAC we now have an up-dated band plan, which as Dave says will be very helpful. Also it's good to know RAC is looking after the Canadian Amateur interests, worth paying for. The reason for the USA making the changes to the 80 meter band I don't really know. The reason for RAC to issue a new band plan as far as I can see is to harmonize with our neighbours/neighbors. It is sad that when the USA jumps we must also jump but they are bigger thanwe are hi hi. In an issue such as this we would only make life difficult for
ourselves if we remained steadfast. That said, I don't say we in anyway should diminish our Canadian identity. Rob, please don't ask me to describe our Canadian identity your a Canadian you know. John, va3gst
