Ron,
Answer:
Wide bandwidths are not prohibited under today's rules. Bandwidths of up to 200
kHz depending on the MF-HF ham band (300 kHz at 10m band) are *permitted* today
in the digital sections of our bands. Under RM-11708 there would be a limit of
2.8 kHz, a massive DECREASE in the allowed BW for Data/Digital modes.
Band plans like we have already, and courteous operation (like most of the RTTY
community) are very good ideas.

Q. Did ARRL evaluate the potential for interference to RTTY, CW and narrow
bandwidth data modes that could result from an increase in wider-bandwidth
data stations? A. Yes. we asked K5RAV and the rest of the ad hoc digital
committee and they thought it was
okey dokey fine. We'll put a bandplan in after we get enough complaints, we
want a bandplan not regulation, it's easier to ignore a bandplan if no one can
identify a station or content and
no pesky regulations that carry the weight of law.
The rest isn't much better and the cynic in me says I should provide new answers
to all the questions and send them to Sumner but he has a history of ignoring
input.

Basically, a "trust us". And if it goes all wrong, well something can be done
eventually...
