[K6BW] ARRL gambles with 10,6 and 2 meters

Here is a revision of yesterday's announcement about
bandwidth proposal.
ARRL Offers Alternate Approach to "Regulation by
Bandwidth" (Mar 23, 2007) -- In the wake of recent
changes in the Part 97 Amateur Radio rules, the ARRL
has revised its "regulation by bandwidth" proposals to
match the new reality, avoid some unintended
consequences and temper some of the controversy the
original petition had aroused. In a November 2005
Petition for Rule Making (RM-11306), the League asked
the FCC to establish a regulatory regime that would
segment bands by necessary bandwidths ranging from 200
Hz to 100 kHz rather than by emission mode. The ARRL
now is urging the FCC to adopt a "subset" of the rules
contained in its original petition that largely
affects only the amateur bands at 28 MHz and above.
