Something about this has been puzzling me. The FCC, when specifically asked [1] about mixed information content picture. and text with digital modulation, chose to respond by proposing to allow AM and FM (A1C and F2C) image modes "currently in use". The NPRM says that they did this to "contribute to the advancement of thr radio art," and the other language they use is consistent with the request to allow MFSK16 pictures, but the end result seems to be just allowing Hellschreiber and analog SSTV.
