Hi Coy:
Yes, I've had one comment about that issue. It was from an individual that likes to pass traffic and is one of the long time NTS guys. I bounced the discussion around a bit and asked him some questions to try and better understand, specifically if he thought we needed a segment for that group, too, like we made for the automatic group (not semi-automatic). I asked him how many people would really need this provision given the digital scene today and after some more discussion, I was left with the impression very few.
In any event, it did leave me wondering. I asked him to outline his points and get it to me, but I have not heard back from him yet.
Like I said, that's the only comment I've received on that issue.
73,

Subject: [arrl-odv:12268] 3KHz Wide Digital
If I understand the EC's proposal, the digital modes will be limitted to 3KHz at HF frequencies. I'm hearing from my digital experts that this isn't enough bandwidth to keep from severly limitting the data rates that can be obtained. Anyone else h!
earing this?
