Bill, There's been nothing official, but it's assumed that their licenses will continue. There will probably be some pressure from the Amateur community to have them move out of the 135.7-137.8 and 472-479 kHz bands. For example, they could set up long term beacons adjacent to those bands. One thing is for sure: Experimental and Amateur stations cannot talk to each other. There has also been speculation that the FCC might ask an Amateur renewing a Part 5 license some probing questions about why they wanted to continue. Personally, I don't plan to renew my WD2XES license. After 13 years of waiting for some critical mass of stations to actually have QSO's with, I think my beaconing operation will be infrequent.
