FT4 acoustic bandwidth is nearly twice that of FT8.

Hi Mike,

that is not correct. The FT4 signal is one-tone GFSK. At any point in time there is only one tone with constant amplitude. In this respect the difference between FT8 and FT4 is that FT8 uses 8 different frequencies to encode symbols and FT4 uses just 4 different frequencies to encode symbols.

I am not sure how "acoustic bandwidth" is relevant, whatever that is. The baseband signal is used to modulate an RF carrier so the resulting signal is not acoustic.
