Yes, Alan, as for the U.K. and Europe, those freqs. are correct. But, just for the benefit of the DX enthusiasts, I will add that in the USA, their 80m. band goes up to 4.0 MHz and their 40m. band goes to 7.3 MHz. (And their full license operator can put out a lot more e.r.p. than we can, too!)

Thanks Alan. That list comprises certain bits of detail that I wasn't aware of; I've captured it for future reference.
