I also am one that runs RTTY on the bands, as well as PSK, but neither of them take up multi KC of space to do so. I used to run packet on 2 meter too. But neither one of them is there to pass large amounts of "official" traffic, and both are good DX modes, and neither one needs more bandwidth than are currently being used. Sadly, the bandwidth available is shortly being compressed, especially on 80. Looks like the sidebanders got their way, at the expense of CW and PSK and RTTY ops.
