How can you sit there and say that, Dee? Again, if you're going to do
public service with a Ham radio, you're only allowed to do public service
which is authorized. You may not do it for profit. You may not do it for a
for-profit business or organization unless it serves the public only, not
the for-profit entity. You may not do it for a non-profit entity if it can
be used for profit (status reports for a walk-a-thon, for example). You may
do it only on the frequencies authorized. And so on. There are rules across
the board as to what is and isn't authorized.
