The initial proposal was 3.5 kHz bandwidth for any mode within certain HF band segments.

I think that ESSB accomodation was part of that reasoning? Can anyone else recall that initially they were proposing 3.0 and then moved it to 3.5? Or is it now that they want to limit the text data area to a similar BW which currently has no limits? I support that and have lobbied hard for it with Division Director and other decision makers, but I now some of you would like to see very wide modes on the HF bands and if this came to pass, it would not be possible to get that changed for a very long time. 73, Rick, KV9U John B.
