They could do that now ;) I don't see how or what that has to do with
the New n-N. The New n-N allows for more stations, many of which aren't
currently being heard. Remember not all digis need WIDE or RELAY or WIDEn-N.

We can use examples of 'what ifs' everywhere. Each network has it's
own share of abuse, and that is a whole different discussion. Abuse in
most areas is handled much better than you think <g>. If you were watching
RF stations doing 5 or 7 WIDE's or WIDE7-7 on your network, what would you
do? Educate them by all means... Just don't follow the education rules
that are currently in place, try something a little better <g>.
