but are not most MARS operators also
ham radio licensees? Hams that have been authorized by the military to
operate on MARS radio systems using military owned stations for military
traffic?

Most municipal radio operators wear a police uniform.

I am sure in your weak, irratic PuppetBoy mind this was supposed to "mean"
something, but it got lost between your (dubiously labeled) brain and your
fingers.

What an idiot.

I'm not the one who said, "Sorry Hans, MARS IS Amateur Radio."

Robert asks you a question about Amateurs operating on military
frequencies for military purposes and YOU respond with some assinine statement
about "most municipal radio operators" wearing police uniforms.

So?

That in ITSELF is completely foolish since police departments are only a
fractional part of most municipal payrolls. There's the Fire Department, EMS,
Department of Sanitation, the utilities departments, roads and highways,
etc...all of whom hav SOME sort of radio service that they use.

Does it make them Policemen? Does it make them MARS Ops?

Remember, Brain, YOU are the one who set the "precedent" that if there is
even ONE example to the contrary, you have been proven WRONG.

I kindly direct you to the word, "most" in my response.

Would you say that "most" means, "is" or "equal to?"

Now...HOW did you go from discussing operating on military frequencies to
"municipal radio operators"...?!?!

How did you go from MARS to Amateur Radio?
