Determing What Is Available
 

There doesn't seem to be any order in this forum. How can one tell what's taken and what's not?

There needs to be a numerical shorted page somewhere.

I looked at the page you pointed to before. Everything shown there is available? No little pieces taken out by anyone?

Example: 86.65 to 86.9 from 86.0-87.0M 63

It's best to take a look here:

Just need to make sure that the "Exclude currently assigned exponents" option is always checked to avoid stepping on anyone's toes.

So a query for the range you mentioned may look something like this:

Okay, after looking around and a bit and some experimenting, I think I've got it. The exclusion of assignments is most important.
