WinDRM and HamDRM are good examples of modes where all functions shoud be legal 
in the image/phone segments in the U.S. but sending a text file in most HF 
image/phone segments is dissallowed by current rules. The crazy thing is that 
you can render the text as glyphs and send it as an image but not do the most 
efficient thing and send the ASCII codes. There is no practical reason that 
user's of WinDRM or HamDRM shouldn't also be allowed to send program files but 
if it isn't intended for direct printing or displaying it's technically illegal.

Other than 160 meters, 7,075-7,100 kHz is the only other segment that allows 
mixed voice, data, RTTY and image.

  I would like to try some of the DRM-based modes which allow you to send 
  voice, pictures, and text.
  I suppose I could do thos on 160m, now that I think of it.
