Symbol Rate Rule Modernization
On the motion of ARRL West Gulf Division Director Dr David
Woolweaver, K5RAV, on behalf of the Ad Hoc Symbol Rate Rule
Modernization Committee,
the Board directed ARRL General Counsel Chris Imlay, W3KD, to prepare a
Petition for Rule Making with the FCC seeking to modify §97.307(f) to
delete all references to symbol rate. The Petition would ask the FCC “to
apply to all amateur data emissions below 29.7 MHz the existing
bandwidth limit, per §97.303(h), of 2.8 kHz.”
The committee determined that the current symbol rate restrictions
in
§97.307(f) “no longer reflect the state of the art of digital
telecommunications technology,” and that the proposed rule change would
“encourage both flexibility and efficiency in the employment of digital
emissions by amateur stations.” The Ad Hoc Symbol Rate Rule
Modernization Committee was dissolved with the thanks of the Board.
Save us from a Board of Directors that would not know Digital Operation
if it bit them on the ass. All we need is a bunch of 2.8 KHz wide
chunks of "white noise" across the entire "non-voice" spectrum. If
they want to remove the symbol rate, the bandwidth better be compatible
with that of CW (100 Hz or less) in the majority of the shared non-voice
spectrum.
As usual, the ARRL BOD has proven how little they know about amateur
operation!
