Excellent comment, Steve. I assume that "no bandwidth limits" still means that the occupied spectrum of a modulated signal not trespass beyond the ham band limits (perhaps sidebands < 45dB, or less than x.xxx mW ERP)? Is this obvious, or should it be clarified?
Paul - Thanks! The Amateur Radio bands are defined separately from the bandwidth limits, so (at least, I think...) that it doesn't need to be stated that a transmission must not exceed the defined band frequencies.
True -- this is certainly understood to be the case with SSB and other traditional modes. It's just when I hear "unlimited" I start to think *way* outside the box!

Great comment! I agree.
