Has anyone read/heard/know of this?

I was sure I'd read about this in one of my magazines (print or online) but can't find it now, but if I remember correctly the FCC has mandated a closer channel spacing & narrower bandwidth on the NBFM presently used for business & public safety NBFM bands.

Also in the article I read the Florida Ham Repeater Coordination Group was proposing the same kind of action by something like 2015? for all repeaters, I think they proposed a grand fathering in up to 2020 but after that no wider NBFM would be re-coordinated automatically & would have to give "good" reasons for wanting to stay at the +- 5 KHz BW & not move to the +-2.5 KHz proposed new BW..

Is this for real or did I dream this one up?

tnx & 73 de ke3fl
