That band plan is a really awful thing. Why have a Flex Radio? The plan calls for 2.7 kHz SSB bandwidth and 6 kHz AM (and not much of that). You sure don't need a Flex radio to do that. Perhaps we can derail this thing. Jon On Oct 16, 2007, at 6:35 PM, KQ8RP wrote: Sure glad I own a

Jon, Take it positively. Isn't it good that you have the excellent digital filters in your Flex Radio? With the 2.4 kHz SSB filter you can pass safely your 300 Hz to 2.7 kHz audio modulation to the ionosphere and rest safe that you don't splatter around with your unnecessarily broad transmission

The Flex's ability to receive, and to transmit, bandwidths greater than 2.7 KHz make it my favorite radio, by far. Fortunately out here on the West Coast, bands such as 75 meters are not at all congested. If the bandwidth is available and you're not interfering with anyone, what's the harm of

This is the new IARU Region 2 band plan that goes into effect January 1, 2008. It has not been adapted by the FCC and is not actually law, nor does it automatically become part of the FCC regulations. I believe it will by 2010. Just in time for the sunspots to start increasing and better
