The attack is not specifically regarding Winlink, but all ARQ protocols that we use. Scare tactics are effective regardless of their connection to reality, and this is what is being done by our opposition, without any semblance to reality.</div><div><br></div><div>ARSFI has responded with as much truth as we can muster, including technical and non-technical accusations that are aimed at ridding the US ham bands of current enabling digital technologies. The Winlink Development Team through the ARSFI has done its best to provide accurate information. What is needed now is either a strong endorsement of our position, or something of your own making. </div><div><br></div><div>PLEASE, at a minimum, sign in and at least endorse our ARSFI response. When reading the material, remember that the NPRM and resulting Docket only address the 300 baud symbol rate rule within the United States. However, much of our response was written for the purpose of getting rid of the inaccuracies that appear from those who oppose the deletion of the symbol rate rule, and anything else dealing with ARQ protocols.</div><div><br></div><div>You can click on <a href="https://winlink.org/FCC_Action" style="font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10.5pt" target="_blank">https://winlink.org/FCC_Action</a> to read Mr Rapport's letters and our response to become informed.
