I'm sorry that there has been no other response so far. Changes to our regulatory rules database are typically proposed in the form of a patch. This promotes specificity in making such changes. I suspect that you are unfamiliar with this form of change proposal, so I have taken a first whack at it. While I maintain the database, I am not as radio proficient as I perhaps should be. I normally leave writing such patches for others, and wait for some level of agreement to be reached before applying changes. In this case, it is quite likely that I have overlooked something or misinterpreted (or simply misunderstood) your change suggestions. I hope that you and others will take a moment to comment and/or suggest further changes to my proposed changes below. Without some affirmative commentary I will not apply any derivative of the changes specified below. Thanks!
