29 March 2009- Will be a Great Day for 40 meters
As experienced ham operators know, 40-meter phone at night can be horrible to work because of the ear- piercing interference from foreign broadcast stations. But some relief is on the way. As of March 29, 2009, foreign shortwave stations broadcasting on 40 meters between 7100 and 7200 KHz are to cease. http://www.ei5ix.net/2008/08/better-days-ahead-for-40-meter-band.html
