1. You're simply wrong if you think that a list of emission designators means there are modulation bandwidth limits in amateur radio. There aren't, and the Commission has stated so several times when they rejected such proposed rules.


2. When I say I want what I've always had, I just mean that, ever since I was licensed in 1972 (and, actually, long before that), amateurs have had the legal ability within the regulations to transmit audio significantly wider than the numerals in the emission designator lists, including audio that could be considered high fidelity voice. And, in fact, hundreds or thousands of amateurs have actually done so _every single day_ since 1972 and probably much earlier. Listen to 3630 LSB almost any day you choose for real-time proof. If this was somehow "illegal," surely there would have been "bandwidth enforcement" actions since then. Yet there has never been such an action.


Case closed. Wideband audio on amateur radio is 100% legal and within the regulations.
