I still think they short changed us on 40 meters.  I would really like to 
see US phone priveliges extended to the International standard of 7050-7300 
kHz.
All those Canadian and European phone nets are still off-limits to US 
operators. This is a real shame--since almost all short-wave broadcasters 
are moved above 7200 kHz by now.

   I have been searching for these for a couple of weeks.
   Here is the ones we have need of.

 the Commission increased the voice segments for General,

Advanced

and Amateur Extra licensees.



On 75 meters, Generals will be able to use voice from 3800-4000 kHz, an

increase of 50 kHz. Advanced class licensees will be able to use voice from

3700-4000,

an increase of 75 kHz, and Amateur Extras will be able to use voice from

3600 to 4000 kHz, a generous increase of 150 kHz.



On 40 meters, Advanced and Extra Class licensees will be able to use voice

from 7125-7300 kHz, an increase of 25 kHz. General class licensees will be

able

to use voice on 7175-7300 kHz, an increase of 50 kHz.



On 15 meters, General class operators will have phone privileges on

21275-21450 kHz, an increase of 25 kHz.



ARRL President Joel Harrison, W5ZN, expressed the ARRL's gratitude to the

FCC Commissioners in a letter dated October 11: "On behalf of the ARRL and

the

Commission's licensees in the Amateur Radio Service I want to express

appreciation for your release yesterday of the Report and Order in WT Docket

04-140

(FCC 06-149) amending Part 97 of the Commission's Rules. The Commission's

action in clearing this pending proceeding will assist the Amateur Radio

Service

in meeting its objectives, particularly with regard to providing emergency

and public service communications."



The changes will go into effect 30 days after the R&O is published in the

Federal Register.
