Default Protecting 123.3

We've got an expensive air-park type housing development in the area (you
know the type...expensive homes on the runway)....and they've 'adopted'
using 123.3 as their CTAF.

Question, isn't this in violation of the rules? If so, what should we
local glider pilots do about it?

Thanks,

Ive always wondered about 123.3 too. Ive never seen anything from the
FAA or FCC designating its use for glider air to air. some private
websites show that it is to be used for flight instruction,
ballooning, and gliders. according to http://www.fcc.gov/oet/spectrum/table/fcctable.pdf
it is not to be used for anything. maybe im reading it wrong.
