Dan,
You are missing the point. Most of us are not against raising the 300 baud
limit, WHAT we are against is adding 2.8K signals in the Digital and CW
potions of the bands. Keep wide band signals in the SSB portion. The other
thing we are against is Winmore and Pactor being used by non-hams in the
ham bands
Dave N3BUO
Thank You!
