Sounds OK to me.

That sounds an excellent idea. There's probably enough space now for a
small SSB allocation into which we can shepherd all the French stations
(and the two G4s in the home counties who have the sched with the HB9) who
ignore the requests to keep the 50kHz allocation free for CW and data.

Does it... On the newly released section there seems to be plenty of space
inbetween the broadcasters (only 4 years till they're gone) to have CW or
narrow band data QSOs and during most of they daylight hours there's oodles
of space for SSB.

Nobody believes the RSGB anymore, especially OFCOMedians :-)
