What would be the advantage to operating this close to the band edge? The
station I am referring to is on this reflector; maybe he would like to
comment.

A disturbing number of rigs, most notably recent and current production 
Yaesu rigs, splatter 2 kHz both sides of their signal only 20 dB down 
(that is, 2 kHz on the suppressed side and 2 kHz on the other side of 
their operational sideband). Anyone using on of these rigs would be 1.5 
kHz out of band.
