I and other digital mode operations have for years  been QRM'd by automatic 
stations without busy frequency detectors, and you've been presented with hard 
evidence in the form of screen shots demonstrating that fact. To advocate 
expansion of the bandwidth or range permitted for such operation is counter to 
a core principle of the amateur radio service: we politely share frequencies.

Dave,

Claims of potential increases in QRM, nothing more. And without at least a year 
long test period where Pactor 4 and only that would be allowed, there is no way 
to prove to anyone on this and other lists that your fears of being overrun by 
it are ungrounded.
