Postyle, the 10Mhz limitation is not much of a limit from a practical standpoint. Consider that it is a limit on how wide a signal may be spread, not how many Mhz the network operator can deploy. Nobody is even close to deploying a system that spreads over 10Mhz and even if that is done, it will still fall under the '94 agreement. An operator can deploy as many channels with a 10Mhz spread as desired and still be covered under the '94 agreement. Nobody even has enough spectrum for this to come into play let alone a reason or the technical ability to deploy 10Mhz spreads with acceptable performance. It's a non-issue.

Why do the IDC shareholders continue to parade this around as if it meant something?

Restricted Bandwidth :

Thanks for your (civil) clarification - many on the Q thread don't appear to know about it. Bux raised a valid point regarding in questioning how many systems will utilise spreads greater than 10Mhz.
