New Transponder Code (1202) for Gliders

SSA has received information of a new transponder code for gliders.
Gliders not in contact with an ATC facility should squawk 1202 in lieu
of 1200. This proposed change will be effective February 9, 2012.

The FAA Joint Order that describes transponder code allocations has
1201 for gliders not in touch with ATC.
What happened to that!!! We've been working all winter to get our
local TRACON to recognize 1201and now it changes??
WTFO!!
