Maybe this will help explain the 120 Knot limit. Read through the whole

"Maximum speed in level flight with maximum continuous power (Vh)—138
mph (120 knots) CAS"
A glider can't maintain 120 knots in level flight, so does this restrict
a glider VNE to 120 knots?
I would guess no, as I'm guessing that some light-sport (powered)
aircraft have a Vne of more than 120 knots.
Ok, now I'm confused.................do I start squawking 1201
everywhere or not? Been squalking 1200 in the Sacramento Valley and
0440 around Reno.

As Eric and Cindy have already stated I think it is best to do exactly
what you do today until it is confirmed that the appropriate ATC
facilities are actually set up to handle this. In the areas you are
referring to PASCO is going to clarify this with those facilities, so
stay tuned.
