The 60 meter band was created for ECOM inter-operability.
Its purpose was / is to allow FEMA and other agencies direct access
to the amateur radio community.
This is a government shared band.
With this in mind, the requirements for amateur radio operators to
utilize this spectrum asset, they have to conform to the frequency
tolerance as imposed on government agencies by NTIA.
This is to allow intelligible communications between government
channelized equipment and amateur equipment.
If you do not like the restrictions imposed, find another place to play.
Remember, amateur radio is a service, not a hobby.
