Plenty of space, plenty of time.\nIt's unfortunate when there are only two stations in the passband and both\nare calling CQ, but I understand that not everyone has a band scope to see\nother signals. And on most passes, the passband will soon be populated. My\nconcern is primarily with the single channel satellites, both FM and\ndigital.\n--\nMark D.
