Wow, 100 KHz for beacons.  Thats room for over 200 individual CW beacons.
Had no idea there was so much bandwidth allocated for that.  But thanks.
That is a good point!

Hummh, I wonder about USA Novices and Tech+ if they can transmit PSK-31 on
10m... I can understand the basis of such a prohibition and a limit to CW
only because a BADLY set-up PSK-31 transmitter is a WIDEBAND QRM generator
outside of the narrowband definition of CW...
