Len may not operate radio equipment
under Part 97 of the FCC regs.

Len may operate -amateur- radio equipment while you are the control

operator.

Like hell he will with me as the control op.

There's the amateur spirit.


Another good example of olde-tyme hamme thinking. :-)

Might be a "spirit" that comes out of a bottle...

Actually, I've already done that "operator" thing with a fully-licensed,
all-papers-open-for-inspection-for-any-A.S.S.-offizier as the "control
op." :-)

Poor Dave. He's run out of valid replies and has to use the "I've-
been-licensed-forty-one-years-and-you've-not!" ploy. As an amateur.
shrug

Tsk. I was first licensed as a "first" radio operator 48 years ago...
actually 48 1/2 years to get into his uber-nit-pickyness. :-)

Three years before that I started in operating high-power HF
transmitters without any license whatsoever, without any Signal
School training on HF transmitters, without any training whatsoever
in or about morse code. :-)

Tsk. It gets worse for Dave. I've actually operated transmitters as
a civilian without once having to show or log my "first" license. All
perfectly legal, too. No need for most Department of Defense
contractors. [DoD isn't ruled by FCC or any "Riley"]

Dave ought to take up nursie's veiled threats of "using his professional
license to call the authorities to 'pick me up.'" This time on emitting
RF without having a valid amateur radio license!

Or, he might take to veiled threats against my wife (like nursie did)
or sign his name "Dave and the Boys" at the end of a posting. :-)

Or, he could become an anonymousie lurking in the baseboards
of newsgroups, afraid of the daylight, jumping out to bite at grown-
ups. Nah. Davie das uber-oberst thinks too much of himself to do
that...

I wonder what the Canadians think about all this "show-your-papers!"
demanding? :-)
