Tony - In writing Zero Retries, I constantly bump into my US-centric ignorance of Amateur Radio outside the US... and thus comments like yours is EXTREMELY valuable to Zero Retries. I'm in violent agreement that Amateur Radio conventions and localized agreements are a far better solution than national proscriptive regulations.

Thanks for your response Steve. The biggest frustration is when US limits dictate the specifications of projects for the GLOBAL ham community. The bleats of "You can't do that" (but yes we can, our regulations allow that, same for most of the world). And because of our unique geographical situation there are some things we do that the rest of the world doesn't, like SSB on 10 MHz, which is not only legal, but written into the current band plan, so it's not even "inappropriate" to do so.
