Whoa. Stop it right there. I asked you a question, based upon EXPRESSLY 
what you stated: And you side-stepped it, and you know it.

     How much clearer can the question be? In that paragraph, you state 
using a two meter radio, running normal FM modulation, using just under 
20 kHz bandwidth, times two channels, repeater in and out, uses the same 
bandwidth as some scheme that you claim, again, in writing, that can 
pass 250 gigabits in one second.

    Again, please answer the question directed at YOUR statement. Stick 
to your stated and quoted statement of fact.
