The guys promoting the winlink/pactor 4 stuff keep talking about improved emcom support. But I'm not sure how these two items tie together.

Can someone explain how the emcom needs are not met with the currently supported modes? I have seen a lot of MARS related winlink comments but that group has a different focus than the general ham population. Not to mention MARS has it's own set of dedicated frequencies.

Again, to keep what we can do today, (up to the 300 baud RTTY with up to
1000 Hz shift) would require a bandwidth of
300+1.2(1000) = 1500 Hz. THAT is the current RTTY teleprinter mode limit

That is actually a darn good suggestion, and does not deviate from what we can do today on FSK with the current regulations.

I.e., the narrowest 2 tone FSK bandwidth you can get by using the maximum symbol rate and FSK shift that is allowed from the existing regulations.

This would include 850 Hz RTTY shift too, which will allow good experimentation to further study selective fading.

Mind if I plagiarize that to include in my own comments to the FCC?

P.S. It would also de-legalize Pactor III and create a different religious war. (Pactor III is 2K20J2D emission.)
