What a damn stupid place to send a news broadcast - 1840KHz in the evening!

No sensible person would transmit a broadcast here at that time.

There's going to be some seriously hacked off 160m dx'ers.

Spectrum Fuhrer Adams G3LEQ is in charge of this STUPID STUPID decision.

He's the GB2RS manager.

For heavens sake - I urge all decent HF/160m operators to make your
