[RTTY] Response to ARRL request for inputs for new Band Plan

[Jay WS7I]

Plenty of room.  For example.  14.000 - 14.035 CW more than enough.  
14.035 - 14.050 RTTY, 14.050-14.060 PSK31, 14.061 - 14.070 500 Hz.  
14.110-14.150 wideband.  RTTY just needs to move way down into the CW 
portion instead of the traditional crowd the top.  Same on 80 it only 
seems constrained. 3.525. - 3.545 new RTTY area.  Heck its really just 
how you look at things.  Can't wait until the 9600 baud packet stations 
get going!

I am tired of ALE dumping all over the high portion of the digital 
area.  After all CW is authorized anywhere in 14.000 - 14.350 let them 
move up and fight with the wideband automatic stuff which will really 
increase.
