Thanks for your take on this. If I read it correctly, you advocate removing the Baud Rate limit, but imposing a limit in Bandwidth to 600 Hz. That seems very reasonable. I think the concern of many is that the current recommendation appears to support the introduction of unlimited-bandwidth emissions in the traditionally narrow-bandwidth CW/Data portion of the HF Ham Bands. I am not opposed to removing baud-rate limits, but there needs to be protection of a portion of the Bands for CW and narrow-band data modes.

Perhaps we should reconsider alignment of Band portions for signals with similar Bandwidths, instead of the end use (voice or data) of the signals. After all, everything including voice is moving toward digital. At some point, it will all be Bits.
