Please don't get me wrong, I 100% support the concept of HAM radio. If I was elected Grand Poomba of the World, I'd pass a law requiring all HAM bands to be in existence forever, and prohibiting any interference with their operation. It only takes a earthquake, typhoon, tsunami, major solar flare etc to render a region back to the dark ages. Then the only way of communicating is by Ham radio, I'm sure there are plenty of hams who could assemble a transmitter out of parts laying around in their parts bin within a few days if necessary.
I just wish "Spies, OTH radar, and that weird swishy sound around the 5 mhz WWV" would leave the shortwave bands alone.
