I've heard Rich make this incorrect statement several times. You are
correct Tony.

SK Carl, W8LAD was cited on 160 for having a signal ten KHz wide
when he was on 1828 KHz. He protested, but the FCC told him his
station was not being operated in accordance to good engineering
practices.
Any emissions less than state of the art for amateur service, or
extending out of your authorized band segment, are grounds for
violation.
