Really?  Where does it say that in Part 97?

The non-RTTY digital boys have two self-created problems which only
they can fix:

1.  They love their waterfall displays with ridiculously wide
bandwidths.  When your receiver is broad as a barn door, what to you
think is going to happen?

and

2.  Partly because of #1, they insist on running power which is hardly
more than a night light. 

So when their night light gets stepped on by a perfectly legal RTTY
contester WHO CAN NOT HEAR THEM, they cry foul. Well, duh!

Contesters have been very good about not using the WARC bands, ever.
Take a hint.
