I, personally, don't use 14.101MHz and have been trying to persuade people to move up the band a bit anyway. So, the deafening silence has been the art of persuasion rather than big boots stomping up and down on a new experimental mode. I do hope that you will be figuring out who and what that packet or TOR mode is that is below 14.101, and nearer the beacon frequency and stomping on that as well? In fact, if ROS is on a dial frequency of 14.101MHz, and like most digital modes it transmits HF of that frequency by some offset, probably about 1.2kHz or so, wont it be far out of the passband of even a wide/normal CW filter? If so, please explain how you are so sure it is ROS that is causing a problem. Even if the '1st tone' was some 400Hz above the dial frequency, that is still 1.4kHz, and only transmitting that 400Hz tone infrequently, so, again, I would have thought way above a 'standard' CW filter width...
