By the way, there's no indication of "SSB subbands" in the real
official regulations from the government. "Phone" is phone, meaning
the same as voice.
Ooooops.
Another example of no practical experience in Amateur Radio.
The FCC has VERY clearly stated that "gentleman's agreements" and
compliance with them IS "good Amateur practice". Persons who have violated
these band plans have been censured and fined by the FCC even though the "sub
bands" they may ahve violated were not exactly specified by the FCC.
Look in volume 5 of the 1 October 2003 edition of Title 47 C.F.R. on
page 640, the table accompanying 97.307.
Does it state "gentlemen's agreements" there? No, it says "Emission
Types Authorized." Look at the 19 bands above 30 MHz. Does "SSB"
appear anywhere? No? :-)
Gosh, I guess nursie always right but FCC wrong!
How about that? :-)
Please refer to just about any current day training text and you will see
that there ARE areas set aside for SSB communications in the VHF and above
spectrum.
Okay, we'll just put you down in saying "current day training texts"
authorize amateur radio and the FCC does not.
So, does MARS exist because of "current day training texts?"
That you don't considerthem "valid" since they are not specifically
delineated in Part 97 is irrelevent. Those 670,000+ licensed Amateurs DO
consider them valid.
You did a poll of everyone?
[you missed about 50K or so licensed radio amateurs...]
The "M" in MARS = MILITARY
The "A" in MARS = AFFILIATE
DoD defines MARS.
FCC does not define MARS.
MARS is NOT amateur radio.
