Default What's up with K1MAN


I was just checking up on this topic and I we just had a major
development.

As you may be aware, there are two fronts going with K1MAN. First
there is the issue with the renewal application which was set aside
for review. This hearing was put on hold pending the outcome of the
second issue. The second is the court case where the FCC is trying to
collect 17,000 in fines.

A few weeks ago, the judge in the first case issued a summary
judgement for 10,000 of the 17,000 fine and held 7,000 in over for
trial. (The judge had previously dismissed K1MAN's counter claim.) The
government asked that the judge just give them $10,000 and call the
rest done. As of last week the judge did just that, ordering K1MAN to
pay $10,000 in fines. I'm sure an appeal will be attempted, but the
judgment is final. This means that unless the appeals court is somehow
willing to consider K1MAN's legal ramblings, he owes $10,000 and the
FCC has a court order to prove it.

This should free up the process for the renewal hearing before the
administrative law judge in fairly short order. Once this hearing
gets scheduled, it's likely to be a pretty open and shut case given
the FCC has multiple warning notices, a NAL and a court imposed fine
as evidence. I'm guessing the FCC will win this hearing and the
renewal will be finally denied.

We are one step closer.... It looks like we are closer to the end
than the beginning. Unless the appeal court holds things up, or K1MAN
can somehow gum up the works with the administrative hearing, we
should be done with this by the end of the year, maybe even within 6
months?

Man I hope so.

Let's give the legal process time to play out, and in the meantime,
let's remember that we've all done things we regretted afterwards. No
matter how much discomfort K1MAN has caused to a few ham radio
operators, in the grand scheme of things, it's not going to change history.

I am considered to be a new ham, although I have been involved in communications for many years.

I have heard that idiot broadcasting his religious crap on the 20 meters many times before.
He offers salvation to the weak of mind and he targets that ham radio listener - as opposed to actual transmitting and not broadcasting.
I tried to reason with the SOB on the air several times to no avail.
I was told that his transmitter site was found and his equipment was seized and his license was revoked, yet I have heard him back on the air, no less then 2 weeks ago.

Remember folks, this is going to be my last transmission, because I have run out of money and I can no longer afford to do this out of my own pocket.
If you would like to help, please send $50.00 to reverend send more money at 1 park avenue, new york city, new york, new york...

Personally I would like to see a lot of people taken off the air / their stations dismantled and their license revoked. Half the bung holes up on the 80 and 160 meters should have no right to a license.

The bottom line is that the ARRL needs to invest their lobby money into getting the long arm of the law back for the FCC and start enforcing the rules and not just talk about BBOPL and other moot items like that.

The ARRL also needs to change the way a applicant is screened before they give them a license and some type of psychological examination should be a part of each test session to keep these types of Loonies off amateur radio and send them back down to the cb radio where they belong.

The second thing the FCC needs to do is clean up CB radio and get those LOONIES off the air.
Some of those guys has much better equipment then the best licensed ham radio stations. Their only purpose is to act like an idiot, to cater to the other idiots and sell the other idiots their illegal ham radio equipment and multi KW amplifiers.

While all of us have screwed up at one time or another, none have done
so with as much panache as K1MAN.

Band conditions has been rather noisy here the last two weeks on the 20 meters - hence I have not heard anymore broadcasts from K1MAN..
That is not to say that he has not done it - but the last time I heard his broadcast he was only using 100 watts from a remote base - which was probably confiscated.

I sent in my coordinates and beam heading when I heard it.
May he rot in haties once they get done with him.

I think that the FCC should require some type of psychological exam along with the tests given to get a Amateur Radio License.
