Well, when a minority few seem to think that they should be special enough to use far more bandwidth than the rest of us do, then I'd say the horse isn't dead yet.  If everyone ran AM that wide that the bands would sound horrible.  If that isn't a good enough definition of presumed entitlement I don't know what is.

Why Elecraft is willing to enable people to use 10 KHz of bandwidth for no good communication reason is beyond me.  It would certainly make me think thrice about supporting a K4.

And Joe didn't bring up the subject ... you and W2XJ did.

Why did I know this would happen?  Do we really have to keep beating this same 
tired horse? Really?

A maximum around 6 KHz would be better,
Audio response greater than 3 KHz is *never* appropriate for
amateur radio.  Amateur radio is, after all, a communications

As a certain FCC official said in a hamfest forum a few  years
ago, "if you want more than 3 KHz, get a *BROADCAST* license."
