This does not sound like it is going well, 6kc, might as well go to ssb. I always object to small groups coming up with " great ideas" to help the rest of us. arrl does not represent me or the majority of hams. lets see, we can not eat fat food, salt, burn gasoline, etc. etc. all a suggested 6kc bandwidth will do is produce more comments from those that immeadiatly think it is law, after all "I saw it on the internet" guess my KWS1 is also no good as it is 3.1 kc .
