I just heard that there is a change to the 60 meter band. The following changes were made to 60 meters:
5MHz Channel List:
Suppressed Carrier VFO Dial freq
5330.5 kHz USB (center of channel = 5332.0)
5346.5 kHz USB (center of channel = 5348.0)
5357.0 kHz USB (center of channel = 5358.5) New!
5371.5 kHz USB (center of channel = 5373.0)
5403.5 kHz USB (center of channel = 5405.0)
The FCC deleted the channel at 5366.5 USB and added channel 5357.0 kHz USB. The maximum allowed power level is now 100 Watts PEP (ERP) effective radiated power referenced to a dipole.
Is anyone using 60 meters? Everytime I tune in, the band is dead.
Here is the FCC website with the information:
