[RTTY] RM-11708 on Oct 4th ARRL Exec Committee Adgenda

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

It's time to e-mail your director again - and file additional comments
with the FCC - reminding both that wideband data has no place in the
spectrum reserved, in the Commission's own words, to "protect narrow
bandwidth modes from [asymmetric] interference from wide bandwidth
modes" for as long as the Federal Government has been regulating the
Amateur Service.

For references to your Director's e-mail address, the procedure for
filing comments with the FCC and general background information on the
issues involved free of ARRL "spin" and misinformation, please see:
www.saveCW.com or www.saveRTTY.com

Urge the Commission to reject this absurd and transparent attempt to
shoehorn PACTOR 4 into the present data spectrum and require ARRL to
present an allocation proposal that accommodates wide bandwidth data
among the other wide bandwidth modes *where it belongs* and protects
all users from automatically controlled stations run amok.

73,

    ... Joe, W4TV
