   Effective sometime in November (probably), the 75 and 40-meter phone   
   bands will be expanded to 3600-4000 and 7125-7300KHz respectively for   
   stations on the U.S. mainland.   
      
   (for Extra Class licensees.  The expansions will be somewhat less for   
   General and Advanced Class but they will still see expansion.  General   
   Class licensees will also get an extra 25KHz of phone spectrum on 15   
   meters but this will be entirely within the existing Advanced/Extra   
   phone band)   
      
   There are (many) other changes to the USA rules but this is probably the   
   one change that will be obvious to DX operators working the USA.
