Subject: [AMRadio] Fw: A rumor about ARRL
I took the time to send a message to one of the directors mentioned in
K1ZZ's message and here is his reply. I don't want to alarm people but now
is the time to influence the direction of this proposal. I am hopeful the
directors will listen to us. I think it gives a little insight into why the
subject has arisen. Best we be on our toes.

I agree!! Quite a number of things have to be worked out before we go
forward to the FCC. Any action won't be for many months (at least)!
>The rumor has stated that the maximum bandwidth be limited to 3.5 KHz. If
this rumor is true, I want you to know I am deeply opposed and will file
comments with the FCC as will many other members of the ARRL who are
involved with AM operation.

Nope, can't substantiate it... Setting specific limits on maximum bandwidth
was not discussed at the Board meeting as far as I recall. Just a rumor,
something the Internet and some users like to start!
But, now that the issue has been raised, are there limits to the bandwidth
of different emission types that ought to be in our goals? The FCC often
speaks to "good engineering practice" and I believe they would not like to
hear a 5 khz wide SSB or RTTY signal, for example.
