[TenTec] ARRL "regulation by bandwidth"

[Martin, AA6E]

AM forever! - read the article:

"The EC made no change to its earlier recommendation that the rules
continue to permit double-sideband, full-carrier AM and independent
sideband (ISB) as specific exceptions to the 3 kHz bandwidth
limit--with restrictions of 9 kHz and 6 kHz respectively. (In ISB, or
independent sideband, each sideband of a double-sideband signal
carries information or data independent of the other.)"

Apparently there is no sympathy for us old spark gap operators. :-(
