View Full Version : CLEANING UP CB RADIO...
RASTA
July 12th 03, 01:15 PM
For the amount of years I've spent here on this NG, I have yet to see (hear)
the bandwidth cleaned up. More truckers are getting hired, more
neighborhood idiots are still throwing "10-95's" while you're chit-chatting,
newer people are skip talking... what good is arguing here gonna do for
cleaning up the band?
Should I answer that?
Don't need to.
This NG is saved for open conversation about CB radio. Not random bashing.
Everybody wants to know how to mod a radio. Everybody wants to know where
to purchase an amplifier. Everybody wants to know antenna efficiency and
coax lengths. Is this breaking the law? NO! Discussing CB radio subject
matter doesn't constitute the individual breaking any laws.
Know what the funny thing is? I only know of "1" (one) person that was on
this NG that got turned in to the FCC. The rest is still keying down.
Imagine that! With the rants of Leland, Doug, Frank, George, Ric and Dave,
it ain't doing no good for these guys. Even when they go to there graves
(like Ric), ain't nothing gonna change.
AKC??? You're wasting your time. You guys need to get out more often. Go
play with your radio or something. Take it to the streets if you folks want
something to happen. Don't bring it here to the NG. No one cares about
your rants. Look at the past 8 years since I've been here. Nothing
changed!
I will still be here, in the background looking for CB radio conversations.
I will still key the mobile on the air and I will still be looking for skip
from elsewhere. We ain't going anywhere... we will still be here. Good
luck "AKC" in your endeavors... its like trying to pour the ocean into a
hole dug into the beach sand with a cup. Take care...

Because through this newsgroup an anti-illegal position can be promoted which
can directly influence the band. The concept is universal and it works; whether
you call it social reinforcement, peer-pressure, or simply setting a good
example, it's one way that responsible CBers can improve the situation.

Nobody said it does, a point you seemed to have missed for the past several
years. What it DOES constitute is the -encouragement- for people to break those
laws by making the act much easier to accomplish. There are at least two
different ways this 'information' makes lawbreaking easier:
First, and most obvious, is that the information eliminates the need for the
prospective lawbreakers to learn the technology, allowing them to take a
criminal approach -- the 'quick and easy path' -- to accomplish their goals. I
sincerely believe that if such information wasn't freely available, many more of
these people would either educate themselves enough to turn their interest in
radio into a legitimate hobby (or even a profession), or find it too difficult
and abandon radio piracy in favor of more rewarding and responsible goals.
The other way is from the attitude that these laws are trivial. Technical
information on how to break the law with CB radio is usually provided without
any warning that its application may cause interference to CBers and non-CBers
alike, and most of the time it's not said that its use can be illegal. On the
contrary, some even go so far as to play lawyer, informing people that federal
communcation laws are "only rules" to be ignored. Then there are those that
would have people believe the fantastic, such as that CB operation is impossible
without illegal modifications or equipment, or that overmodulation is a good
thing, or even that RF power is the end-all-beat-all of human existence. This
only encourages illegal radio, and does absolutely nothing to improve the band
or the newsgroup. And it certainly doesn't help the fence-sitting CBer to make a
decision that's not only responsible to himself (and perhaps to the financial
security of his family should the FCC slap him with the typical multi-thousand
dollar fine), but responsible to all the other CBers that will be negatively
impacted by his selfishness.
So discuss all you want. But when someone else brings up important topics that
are ignored in those conversations, just remember that by attempting to supress
those topics you are demonstrating your contempt for the Constitutional right to
free speech, the very right you embrace while discussing radio piracy.

That's like saying that we should all just lay down and die now because we are
all going to die eventually. Well, feel free to do so, but I have other plans.
Contrary to your opinion, things do change. Sometimes they change for the better
and sometimes for the worse, but they do change. Some people would rather
promote apathy and use the "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" excuse for their
lack of responsibility. Some, such as myself, would rather take an active hand
in changing things for the better. Because if everybody gives up and starts
doing whatever they please without conscience or restraint, the whole thing
falls apart into anarchy and the FCC drops the band -- not my idea of a bright
future for CB radio.

Quite a bit has changed. Anti-legal CBers such as yourself no longer control the
newsgroup. Most have learned that everyone here has an equal voice, that our
voices can't be 'stepped-on', 'keyed-over', or otherwise supressed the way they
are on the radio. And loss of control over the airwaves by illegals isn't far
behind: Radio direction finding technology also falls under the 'freedom of
speech' umbrella, and their popularity is growing by leaps and bounds. More and
more CBers are learning that they can self-police their band just like the hams,
and many have learned that it can be fun at the same time. And because illegal
CBers are operating with more power, less responsibility, and dirtier radios
than ever before, the task isn't very difficult. Things have changed, and will
continue to change whether you like it or not.

Do whatever you feel you need to do. So will we.

I have seen this time and again on the internet.
"Frank'..goes by millions of names. He is an excellent example of a
person who bought a computer, has few if any friends and uses the internet
in lieu of medication, counseling or just 'getting out more.'
The millions of "Franks' out there can be seen in every group from radio
to religion (or lack there of.) to CD collecting newsgroups.
Their sole purpose in life is some 'compulsive' behavior disorder that
drives them to pay hundrends of dollars for a computer just so they can
excercise their mental disorder on the general public without any face to
face contact. A type of high tech 'sniping' that serves no purpose other
than to satisfy some mental abberation that only counseling and possiably
medication could alleviate.
Now if some think I am being mean to "Frank", I am not.
"Frank" has one very good point about legality.
In the past, CB was licensed as a way to control it. Abeit dismally.
"Frank' or "Franks' like him, are an excellent argument why people
should be licensed for the internet...of course..that will never happen..so
like the "Franks" on CB and ham radio or the little mouthy guy in the bar.
You ignore him.
As said earliar, "Franks' can be seen in every group.
"Franks" as this one did, also rant about their 'right' to 'free
speech'. The real 'right' they want is someone to acknowledge them. Because
in their dismal little world, somewhere along the way they got abandoned,
fired from their job, lost by their mother, their sister/brother hates them,
the girls/guys don't find them appealing, or when they were a kid their
puppy did'nt play with them..whatever....they must have some kind of
attention to prove to themselves they are worthy or important.
"Franks' use the 'right of free speech' and a computer as a bandaide to
hide their mental and social disorders so they can excercise it on people
whom they never met or know.
They care little about the hurt they cause, interupting civil exchanges.
They only care about themselves. Much like a sociopath who can justify
anything.
If they are not on the internet excercising their disorder (Note: not
free speech..this has nothing to do with 'free speech', it's about a mental
abberation they are displaying.), then you can find them on the CB, Ham
radio on 40 and 75 meters, your local tavern or the busy body next door who
knows when you leave or come home.. Every community has at least one.
...you know them..the ones who rant, butt in..generally obnoxious little
people who got their milk money taken from them at school when they were
little and never got over it..
"Franks' are compulsive disorder types who has to have the world their
way. They won't step on cracks. Have to have their towels folded a certain
way. A rigid personality that if one little thing is out of place, then the
world will end..at least their world.
They must 'prove' some obscure point or their world will crumble. They
will argue about a point that has no relevence in their real lives, only in
their fantasy world where they are, or think they are in control.
Franks basically fall into two main catorgories.
The first type of 'Frank' are called "trolls'..these people know they
are obnoxious and as said earliar, looking for attention. They make
outragous or inflamatory statements to get a response. Simply because, they
cannot interact in the real world. If you met a "troll' (I have..), he is a
dismal little person with no life. Shy..reclusive..few if any friends..
He would never say what he does on the interent to a 'real' person. He
excercises his disorder on the internet, in his fantasy world. We have all
seen them on CB. The mouthy guy.
But when you track him down, he is a little guy, has'nt taken a shower
in a week, his girl left him and is working at the local car wash. You feel
so sorry for him, you give him $10.00 and leave. You pray his bad luck is
not contagous..: )
The secound type of "Frank' are serious about their 'beliefs' in that
they display their compulsive disorder by making wild claims or 'polices'
groups. Their rants can range from Government coverups, CIA is watching
them..(or you..), UFO's are after them, CB's are evil, God is bad, there is
no God, the Teletubbies are gay and are after your children.
They spend an outragous amount of time arguing about something with
absolutely no relevence in the real world. Because if they don't, something
bad will happen. At least that is what they believe.
The secound type of 'Frank' is far more dangerous then the 'troll'.
The secound type 'Frank' actually 'believes' his rant and end up as Postal
Workers..: P
Again, I am not being mean to 'Frank'..
'Franks' are a sad truth about the internet. The good thing is we have
'filters' and 'killfiles' to delete these 'Franks' to make our day alittle
more enjoyable so we can talk to people and exchange ideas. You may do so if
you have "Outlook' under "Message'..
The reason to use killfiles is not because your being mean, or don't want to
read his 'free speech'. The reason is 'Franks' are annoying and have little
to contribute. And since it is a disorder we do not want to enable them thus
causing their condition to worsen.
I have just added another 'Frank' to my killfile..

mr gilliland............most of the people using amps and using cb
radios..........they don't even get on here nor do they know about
this newsgroup.........hell....most of them can't even use a
computer..........so please .......this newsgroup does not affect
anyone's behavior in the least..........that argument is falacious and
the only damn reason you say that is to justify your silly pitiful
behavior.........grow up and get a life pal................

Understood. But through constant "bickering"? By all means, I can see and
respect that you and your fellow compadres are actively taking part in
trying to "take up arms" (per say) in reminding others about the legalities
of radio. But through this newsgroup, people wants information about RADIO!
Not Part 97 of the FCC Regulations. If "they" want to commit " radio
piracy", then that's "their" choice. Of course, your choice is to prevent
that... but that is your choice too. But constant arguments is not going to
influence anything but chase the newcomer away... and this newsgroup will
not fulfill its intended purpose. CB radio information.

Franklin... whether this makes any sense, the internet's expanse is too

This may sound bad, but CB radio will not influence anyone to accomplish any
goals. It is a hobby. It is not a lifestyle. One thing is for certain...
society as a whole doesn't need anyone from Louisiana, Washington State,
Ohio, New York or Philadelphia to tell it what it can do and what it can't.
Society is self-educated. It's the way it is. And trying to "STOP" that
"freely available" information is like "...trying to pour the ocean into a
hole dug into the beach sand with a cup."

Of course this information can't be supressed. But it -can- be evaluated for
it's technical validity. For example, "swang" is a new word for an old concept:
DSBRC (Double-SideBand Reduced Carrier), a mode given up over half a century ago
because it causes more problems than it solves. So when a CB newbie listens to
some dummy talking about 'bird-watts', don't you think he would like to know the
truth of the matter? Of course he would, and that's all I'm doing. It's the
"golden-screwdriver" techs that spread this 'information', and instead of
supressing it, I just tell what the 'information' really means so the CBer can
make an informed decision as to whether or not to trash his radio.

I think you are taking the word "goals" to the extreme -- I merely meant that if
a person wants more from radio than what the CB has to offer then he has three
choices: 1) Memorize the question pool and get a license; 2) Operate illegally;
or 3) Find another hobby. And no, the information isn't going away, but as I
said before, that 'information' is incomplete. If the CBer knows all the facts
then he can make a decision that's better for both him and the band.

Since you brought it up, speeding isn't a federal offense and doesn't carry a
maximum fine of $17,000. That may scare some, while it may be nothing more than
a financial risk to others. But it's DEFINITELY something that everyone should
know BEFORE they make that decision.

There have been MANY technical discussions here that haven't become a thread
about legalities. But you are right, many technical discussions do end up about
legalities. Why? I'll tell you...
Just for the sake of argument, just how technical can CB get? I mean, the CB is
a radio service that was intended to have minimal technical requirements, which
is why there is no license (and when a license was required in the past it
required no test of technical competence). Just hook up the power, run the
antenna, plug in the mic and you're working (and to think that some people make
that their hobby...LOL!). Yet most technical discussions seem to be about swang,
bird-watts, keydowns, amps, flame-throwing antennas and being as loud as
possible. IOW, most of the technical topics here focus around -illegal- CB, and
that's why legal issues come up so often.
Slightly OT, why does everything here have to be about technical topics? How
about making a hobby of COMMUNICATING on the CB? About the only posts made in
this newsgroup even remotely close to -that- topic are Twisty's DX reports.
Doesn't anybody think about what's possible with CB radio? Like, how about
setting up CB broadcasts for Amber Alerts, or organizing networks for public
events? When was the last time you saw any mention of the REACT program in this
newsgroup? :end rant

Whether you like it or not, do you suppose that you are arguing about things
that you and the so-called "golden crewdrivers" agree upon? Sometimes I
have to re-read the posts and find out that both of you folks are saying the
exact same thing, just in a different way. Maybe some people don't have the
technical "tongue" like you do, but chastizing such people only degrades
your validity. Do you like getting picked on?

But on the contrary, Frank. Speeding can be a cause of many felonious
behaviors. Like radio, like speeding. It is the same thing. Owning a
radio is not a federal offense. Operating it "illegally" is. Speeding is
not a federal offense. Speeding and killing someone is. Know what I mean?

What's wrong with that? Talking about such subjects is not illegal. Even
if -encourages- such illegal activities, let them suffer the consequences.

No. It is a trend. "...beat 'em, join 'em" had nothing to do with what
was, did, is and will go on. And soon, like the CB boom of the '70's, it
will fade away and slowly creep back up again. That's the way it is and
that's the truth.

Me too! Always have. That is the main reason for coming here but as
was mentioned by others before. The crap that goes on in this group
NEVER and I mean NEVER even affects the real guy on the cb. I mean
forget about the diehard guys as was said they dont even know this
place exists and for the ones that do and by the small chance even
visit here, they still get on their big linears and talk skip or
compete as they choose! It affects nothing in the real world but yes
it may have bothered some who are on this group. In reality for the
guy that at this very moment is using a 16 pill linear talking skip
and enjoying his setup, doesn't give a rat's ass that there are some
old geeky folk on some newsgroup somewhere that dont like what he is
doing. I mean even if I went and told him!
The bickering and all the childish sex talk does nothing to promote
the anti key cause.

Can you name a country or countries where unlicensed 11 meter DX
hobby-type operation is specifically authorized? As far as I know,
international treaty does not permit unlicensed "HF DX" radio
services. You should not assume that some foreign country allows 11
meter DX just because you heard them on the radio. I would like to see
verifiable proof, such a grant, authorization, or other form of
governmental decree.
Thanks...

So what's your problem? Why even waste your energy of coming in here
and complaining about it? It's been going on for so long, nothing's
ever gonna change it.You can't accomplish anything with whining.It's a
losing battle. It's like trying to drain the ocean with a teacup.You
might as well just give up.What you're doing is useless.

I think Dave Hall said it best:
"There are many people out there that are "on the fence" with regard
to whether or not to follow the law or not. Those are the people that
will hopefully read what is discussed here and decide that it might
not be a good idea to break the law. THOSE are the people that we're
trying to reach. Those that are hopelessly incorrigable will continue
their anti-social ways until the law finally catches up with them. Of
course you can't blame those of us that understand the purpose of law,
from assisting the people entrusted with enforcing the law, by
gathering evidence for them. It's called looking after our best
interests."

They are only rules, part 95 is just that, rules. But they
aren't to be ignored, because after many repeated violations
they can charge you with breaking a "Law", but that is far
and few between.

You brought that upon yourself, Franklin. When you and your counterparts

control is lost, then you have CHAOS. And that is the fruits that the AKC

Whatever. But let me clarify something...
My original post was for what I saw and read. I did not post my original
message to attack you at all, Franklin. That was not my intentions. You
made it your business to reply to my post. Now if it was someone else from
your AKC Organization, then I would've responded to their post. Don't take
this as personal as you think it is-because it is not. I just merely posted
the truth.
Anyway, go ahead and have a good one. This one is on me... free of charge.

No. I doubt there is one.
Can you name a country where people are "specifically authorized" to
wear a blue shirt with green pants? I doubt there is one.
The fact that it is not "specifically authorized" does not mean it is
not permitted. In most of the world, anything which is not forbidden,
is permitted. Unless it is "specifically FORBIDDEN", I may play catch
with my son, go for long walks on the beach, DX on 11 meters, use a
power drill and wear a blue shirt with green pants.

I believe you are correct. With almost all international treaties,
there are a number of countries which don't sign on. Worldwide
agreement is extremely rare. I have seen no evidence to suggest that
EVERY county in the world has signed on to the ITU ( or other )
international agreements regarding unlicensed radio operation.

It really isn't a bad idea at all. I was thinking that Ch. 10 might be good
because it's right next to Ch. 9 (keeping that channel open), but on the side
away from Ch. 6 so it won't pick up as much splatter. Ch. 10 could carry short
broadcasts at timed intervals to provide descriptions and contact information,
and brief notifications of the broadcast can be made on Ch. 19. The broadcasts
could be made by CBers who volunteer for the job in cooperation with their local
law enforcement, such as through the C.O.P.S. program (Community Oriented
Policing Services). You could also look into getting the broadcasts protected as
emergency transmissions.

Remember that it was THEIR choice to escalate it into a level of harassment that
was clearly illegal. If a woman wears provocative clothing, is it her fault if
she gets raped? From a different angle, if a drunk driver gets busted, is it the
cops fault that the person lands in jail? Why do some people always have to find
someone else to blame for their own behavior? If you are chastizing me because
they behave poorly then you need to get a new perspective. And don't EVEN come
down on ME for speaking out against illegal operators because it is THEIR fault
that the CB is in a state of chaos. Again, put the blame where it belongs.

That's because I don't do business over the internet anymore. And I never said
that anything in the newsgroup affects my career, just that I spend a lot of
time on the computer. I also access the internet through my computer. See the
relationship?

Kids? You mean Twisty? How is he a 'kid' if he claims to be a professional
journalist with a wife and kid of his own? And why is flaming him stupid?

From the beginning: You said people don't die, they just multiply. I responded

night?" If you want an explanation then figure out why you responded with such
an irrelevant question. Regardless, I never said that I was going to change
things "over night".

it ain't doing no good for these guys." Now if you weren't referring to me, then
who?

You posted your opinion. Seems like you and Twisty have the same problem of
being unable to differentiate opinion from truth. If you disagree, then maybe
you should explain a few things, beginning with why your claim that I have
posted everyday for the past three years is the truth.

I have watched this NG from time to time and see more people bitchin'
about "Illegal activites" than I see people helping each other out or
just plain having an electronic conversation. I will just post my
opinion here that I think might speak for some others here.
I do alot of "Illegal" things. Sometimes I drive to fast, I smoke
weed daily, I run power and shoot skip. sometimes I get real wild
and (GASP) whistle into my radio or use an echo board. Before you
lecture me and talk about my "Illegal" activities, realize that I
dont give a ****.... As long as I'm not actually harming another
human being I really dont care.
You whiny little hind tit suckers need to realize that there are many
other things that you can do to change the quality of your hobby. You
could be proactive and educate a younger generation about the joys of
amateur radio. You could build a great website promoting your hobby.
Instead all you do is sit here and troll.... it's easy, and somehow
provides instant gratification to your soggy little porn saturated
brain.
This NG is about CB radio,,, NOT ham radio, and not about the
"Legality" of amplifiers. You can waste your keystrokes all you want
ranting and raving about how you want a perfect world with no RF
saturation, but it aint ever gonna happen. As long as I can get an
amp I'm gonna run it....
Please, to all you snobby HAMS out there.... Do something useful....
come over here and shampoo my crotch.

Not nearly as much as I'd like to. Have travelled exttensively
through Canada, US, Mexico, England, Scotland & Wales.
Admittedly, most of the information I have is second hand.. Australian
Uncle, ...Father and Mother travelled extensively for years through
Europe and the far East..Dad worked in India for some time..My
Daughter who works in Hong Kong, just came home from 4 months in
Mainland China.
While there is no substitute for first hand experience, in today's
information age, a great deal of knowledge about a place can be gained
without actually being on the ground.
While I may not have the stamps in my passport that others do, my
lack of world travel experience does not invalidate my position that
in most countries where the rule of law prevails, anything which is
not forbidden, is permitted.

Valid point. I don't....yet.
The whole " not every country has signed the agreements" argument was
really just a rear-guard action on my part untill I could get more
information to bolster my argument.
I thoght my own country had changed its position on CB skip talking
and was going to quote our regs to you. I then discovered that they
hadn't changed at all. At that point all I had left ,was the idea
that it is extremely unlikely ( IMHO ) that every country in the world
had outlawed 11 meter DXing.
And while I believe that there are a number of countries who have no
legislation prohibitting CB skip talking, I have no hard data yet to
back that up.

I spent a little time in the Middle East. While I was there I learned that there
are places you don't go, people you don't talk to, things you don't say, etc,
even though there is no law forbidding such things. I have been other places as
well, and it's pretty much the same way everywhere I went. The US is pretty
unique in that we need every single little rule of conduct to be codified as law
in explicit terms before people finally decide to behave themselves. But as
exemplified in this newsgroup and on the Citizen's Band, even -that- doesn't
always work.

England has no distance limit on their 11-meter CB allocation.

Yes it really is too bad they are restricted to FM mode only. HF DX is
not intended to be a feature of the service.

That's actually the most reasonable and logical thing I've ever seen
you post, Aanal Aaron. Too bad you're trying to impose it on others,
instead of applying it to yourself.
You, Frankie-boy, Georgie-girl, and others have attempted to control
other people thru trolling for quite some time. It hasn't worked, it
doesn't work, it won't work. If FCC enforcement hasn't worked, what
makes you believe that your lame trolling will?
You are quite correct: Ain't nothing gonna change it. All you can do
is control yourself, something you're really poor at. That applies to
you, Aanal Aaron, to Frankie-boy, to Georgie-girl, and the others. So
why bother taking up space here to complain about it?
CBers are aware of the Rules, and a few of them make a decision to
violate them. You are not an FCC operative (if you are, what's your
badge number?), nor are any of the other trolls. Hell, Frankie-boy
isn't a ham or a "commercial broadcast engineer" as he has claimed.
He's lucky if he's even a tech.
Thus, you might as well give it up. The best you can do is operate
your CB legally and try to set an example. Nothing else is going to do
anything but raise your blood pressure.

Really now. You take all the "fun" out of the trolling those morons do
by being logical and real. You realize that, don't you?
Trolling is the only thing they have in their pathetic lives! And
Frankie-boy claims to be a "commercial broadcast engineer", yet he
can't even get an amateur license. LOL!

Why do you bother posting and taking up space regarding what we do ? It is a
free world and as a USA citizen we are afforded many of lifes great
pleasures posting to this NG is one of them. Now go troll someone elses

That's not Aaron, he's posting from a DoD
account. Aaron used AOL. I still think someone
should report him for wasting tax payers money
trolling the newsgroup. Think about it, you are
paying taxes to let this person troll the newsgroup.

You have been just introduced to one of our
resident trolls George, WA3MOJ. He is a troll
and posts under many assumed names and
different accounts like AOL portal and Web2News
anonymous accounts.
You are better off ignoring him or kill filling
him, but remember, he changes nics like a
normal person changes underwear so you would
have to stay on top of the kill file.
Landshark
PS now watch the foul language, sexual innuendoes,
hate filled response from him, proof that he is a troll.

Hello Aaron,
Hope all's well with you. I believe the "challenge" is half the fun.
Pop'Comm magazine did an article on a chap who works a fair amount of DX
using only 4 Watts in FM mode. Even pictured a pretty nise QSL card.

But here you are, whining about someone else's post. Try a killfile.

True, athough they keep saying they are "testing" SSB and considering
allowing it.
Still, there's nowt wrong with FM... it is less prone to impulse type
interference.
If I had the choice of having two modes for UK CB, it would be FM and SSB.
Forget AM, as FM is great local and SSB is better for distance and
bandwidth.
> and they must have a license.
Not for much longer.
There are plans to remove the licence. If it goes ahead, from later this
year, new licences would not be issued but existing licences will be valid
for their full year. Although, existing licences will not be worth the
paper they are printed on - as they would no longer be needed. It's just to
stop people moaning about getting their "money's worth" from the fee paid
just before that date and asking for the unused part of their fee to be
returned.
Really, the "consultation" process is just for show - they must be seen to
be giving people a chance to speak up. Unless someone can give very good
arguments why it should not happen, then the licensing for CB and use of the
old UK only frequencies will be finished.
How did they end CB licensing in America... Did they just stop issuing them,
did existing licences become worthless, or did they phase them out in some
other way?

>HF DX is not intended to be a feature of the service.
It was not intended to be, but it often is.
What they did at the beginning, to try to stop DX without outlawing it, was
restrict the antenna length, type and height with power.
So, the antenna could not be more than 1.65m in length, had to be base
loaded, had to be omnidirectional... and if you mounted it more than 7m off
the ground, you could only use 400mW.
However, they found that encouraging the use of small antennas, close to the
ground, with 4 Watts of power caused too much interference to TV and radio.
As those who kept to the rules causes interference, while the "law-breakers"
were running cleanly, the rules were changed.
They allowed 1/2 wave dipoles and 5/8 wave monopoles at any height, but
still kept the restriction on beams. Yet, they never added a DX rule, but
they clearly state that there is no restriction.
I cannot imagine them trying to add a "No DX" rule"... they already tried
setting unenforceable rules, and simply made a rod for their own backs.
The enforcement side of the RA (the RIS), have not the time or funds to be
chasing things that are not causing problems, so they are unlikely to bring
in any rule that will just cause them more wasted time and money running
about.
Also, the UK have made the CB rules short and simple... with the purpose of
limiting the chances of interference. If you add too many rules, or write
it in "legal language" (like so may legal agreements), making it heavy
reading... people just wont read it.

Better idea, let's ban Twistedhed from the newsgroup.

LOL,,,if I did leave,,your infatuation would only dictate you pretend
to be me again,,,,your addy matches the same 64.12 IP that forged me and
wrote "Respect for Freebanders". This email addy your are using now has
two separate points of origination...the one you are using now, where
you have forged me (64.12) and the 152.163 addy that posted the forge "I
am outlaw CB Genius".
Never have I seen your ego at all time low like it is now. Feeling bad
about yourself is a terrible thing...maybe you should turn off the cb
and get some fresh air,.come back when you are happy with yourself and
not interested in assuming another's identity......LOL.
