If 'compromise' is the order of the day, and as you admit, RM-11708 is 'not
perfect', then I propose the ARRL modify the wording of RM-11708 to limit DATA
signals wider than 500 Hz to the top 10 or 15 kHz of the CW bands. Without that
'compromise', I am **100% TOTALLY AGAINST RM-11708**. (That's how I figured out
to live with it.)
I do agree that this should not have been brought up at the N1MM session, but
that just proves how passionate some are about the subject.

All "the sky is falling" rhetoric does not serve cause of those opposed.
Change is coming. Figure out ways to live with it. RM-11708 is not perfect. There needs
to be compromise not fanatical opposition . . . or promotion. The same is true for
those who favor it; compromise.
I attended the N1MM session at Plano to learn, not to be proselytized. I was
very disappointed that the particular session was hijacked to promote a
personal agenda. That was totally out of line. While I respect the
presenter's scientific credentials, his misuse of the forum devalues the weight
of his argument.

I have a suggestion. Let's pour all of our energy into assessing the actual
impact of RM-110708. If there is proof that the bands are being degraded, then
it should be easy to get a petition together to repeal the action.

Allen,
Thanks for taking a stand against RM-11708. I have one of the Dayton
Anti-RM-11708 buttons for you and will be hanging around the DFW Contest lunch
and presentations Friday.
Does anyone know when the ARRL Q&A session is on Saturday. I sure hope it's
in a big room.

David,
Thanks for your reply. I completely understand that you will be fully occupied with
HamCom. I will again present these questions at the ARRL Q&A session on
Saturday. And I can virtually guarantee you that these will be the only questions
on the agenda. This is the MOST divisive issue since incentive licensing. So if I
were you I would bring my kevlar vest.

You deserve a detailed answer, but I have to postpone that answer as I am
preparing for the Regional Centennial Convention at HamCom. There are lots of
things to do before Friday.

David,
I have read everything the League has published about the proposed RM-11708 and so far I
cannot find the reason for this proposed rule making. No where does the League state the
problem that this change attempts to solve. And so far as I can tell the only effect of
this proposal is dramatically increased QRM on the lower portion of all the HF bands.
When recently asked about all the new QRM by one our members (K0IDT), David Sumner, K1ZZ
gave a totally inappropriate smart aleck reply, "short term frequency conflicts are
best dealt with by using the VFO knob".
Since you attend BOD meetings as out West Gulf Division Director and are on the
Executive Committee I’m sure you must have a better handle on this situation
than everyone else. Please explain what the problem that RM-11708 attempts to
correct. Please explain why the ARRL is making this proposal in contravention
of IARU recommendations. Please explain why we now need to put automated wide
bandwidth digital signals into the traditionally narrow bandwidth portion of
the HF bands. Without a better response from the League than Sumner’s sorry
comment I will start lobbying everyone in my ham radio circle to file comments
with the FCC urging the Commission to deny RM-11708.
We deserve better than this from the ARRL.
73,
dave
