It's all about how much of the band you are using.
But you know how they like to pick on poor Pactor.

8. Two bandwidths are appropriate for what is now the RTTY/Data
subband, 1.5 KHz and 2.4 kHz. The selection of these two bandwidths
should accommodate current modes and not prohibit any emissions
currently found in the 80 through 10-meter bands. Pactor III would
continue to be authorized, as long as speed levels 1 and 2 are used.
1.5 kHz is appropriate because of the bandwidth guidance for the
RTTY/Data subbands in 97.307(f)(3). As stated above when employing the
formulae of Part 2.202 for amplitude or frequency modulation, with a
signal with quantized or digital information, and telegraphy without
error-correction, the necessary bandwidth derived is 1.5 kHz. 1.5 kHz
will accommodate emissions in the RTTY/Data subbands where appropriate
and is consistent with the intention of97.307(f)(3). 2.4 kHz is also
appropriate because of the bandwidth guidance for the RTTY/Data
subbands in 97.307(t)(4). 1.5 kHz bandwidth is appropriate for the 80
through 12 meter bands and 2.4 kHz is appropriate for the 10-meter
band. This action will restore the separation of emissions by
bandwidth, which has been lost due to changes in technology. The
definitions of data in 97.3(c)(2) can return to the definition of data
prior to FCC 06-149 since bandwidths for the current RTTY/Data band
will be enumerated. Continuing to enumerate emissions by lTV emissions
designator in the Phone/Image subbands will continue to prevent other
data emissions from
