They already get a chunk of 10M - from 28.300 to 28.500 on SSB. They could be allowed on 17M SSB and that would be OK by me. That would give them a lot of access to DX. They also already have a portion of every band for CW. I think they are worrying about something that doesn't exist. I see a lot of techs that ride out the 10 years of the license and then let it expire. Many of them never get a radio or get something from China that is to hard to program so they give up on it.
