Don...Talked with Jim Haynie yesterday about this.....Like he said and
please do not quote me that they have not told him what to
petition the FCC on and that there has not been a time frame set to do
it...I really do not think that he is in favor
after he saw all the interest in AM at our special Event at
HAMCOM...We have a very large contingent of AMers on our local repeater
that
are on him all the time....

Minute 64 adopted at the most recent
ARRL Board of Directors meeting on July 19-20, 2002:

64. On motion of Mr. Frenaye, seconded by Mr. Stinson, it was VOTED that
at the next practical opportunity the ARRL shall petition the FCC to
revise Part 97 to regulate subbands by signal bandwidth instead of by mode.
The last time that was tried, back in the 70's, the proposed bandwidths
were 350 Hz and 3.5 kHz. That was Docket 20777, the infamous FCC proposal
that would have killed AM on the HF bands. It was only through the strong
response of the AM community that the measure was rejected. We need to get
busy on this one!
