Extremely badly written, I believe it would be better to get rid of it completely and start from the scratch. Unless rewritten, I'll nominate it for deletion. - Mike Rosoft 19:22, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I agree. Beginning with the title: If it were named Amateur HF Bands, that would be better, since there are also the broadcast shortwave bands too. Roodog2k 20:34, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Okay, I've taken a big hack at it, though I don't know much about commercial allocations outside the international broadcasting and amateur radio worlds. I'd like someone to take a hack at the Marine and Land Mobile section to flesh it out a bit. Haikupoet 02:16, 8 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion Needs

Basically work is needed to cover three uses -- military, commercial, and maritime uses of the HF bands. When I rewrote this article way the hell back in May, I didn't (and still don't) have the expertise to fill in those sections. Haikupoet 05:37, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
