Good point.  These band openings could really do
that to our DCD lights.   Of course if that is normal
for any given area, then it might be a good idea 
to check all the surrounding digis and see if they support
the New-N protocol.  

I see that WA9CJN is fully New-N compliant, so this comment
is not to you, but a general kibitz...

Getting most digis to set parameters to the New-N paradigm
droped our channel from 100% QRM down to periods as long 
as 10 seconds now when no packets are heard...  But
we all still see each other, just more reliably now.
