Chen,
That's not so. Pactor-IV is not permitted in the USA *only* because its symbol 
rate exceeds 300 baud.
There is currently no  regulatoryBWrestriction  for  non-FSK digital signaling 
in the USA. 
The FCC consider Pactor  "documented" since you can purchase a modem. I know, I 
don't like that approach either, but there you go! 
I've been accumulating the technical data for Pactor.
Pactor-III (legal in USA) occupies up to 2200 Hz BW; Pactor-IV occupies up to 
2400 Hz BW.

Currently, it is illegal to use Pactor-4 on amateur bands in the US due because 
of two reasons: 1) it exceeds legal bandwidth, and 2) the codes (convolution 
codes, encryption, etc) that it use are not publicly documented.
