OK let me chime in as a long time 6 meters user ... FIRST ...... NO ONE OBJECTS TO DIGITAL MODES ..... In fact they do have a place in this hobby however the problem as we see it is the tiying up of large amounts of space ( 200 ver 3 kHz ) on bands that ARE widely used and do cross borders.
SECOND ....... NO 6 METER GROUPS WERE CONTACTED I contacted SMIRK and several other national groups and no one was asked for there input and when we contacted the ARRL we were ignored. If your going to ask for space ( 90%) of a band it would be nice if someone at least informed all of the thousands of users on your plans. THIRD ...... The term LEGACY mode explain that to all of us who have no idea where you came up with that and it does seem derogatory. I don't see any SSB or AM groups using any such terms.
