This is a "new" discovery?
AFAIK this has been the way it has always been. A lot of the radios
used in the Heavy Metal Rally have been traditionally commercial
broadcast radios converted to the Amateur Radio Bands.
Also the re-use of Military Surplus equipment as the BC-610.
An in-depth historical "study" would be needed to determine "why" it was
established the way it is.
Why do SSBers have a hissy if an AM only station tries to check into a
group or net?
