Hi Roger and the -bb,
>From memory it takes up less than 12.5 kHz which is the
channel spacing on 2 meters (In Region 1 at least).
Frequency deviation like 2.5 kHz (old 3.5 kHz and even some
have 5 kHz deviation).
It is the frequency deviation that is a the issue with SO-67 (I think).
If you run too high deviation on the uplink the LF to the transmitter will
make it deviate too much. Even for a normal (old) setting on the receive
side.

The Carson rule says: Signal Bandwidth = 2 times (Deviation + modulation
frequency).

Did that help ?
