He "addressed" the deficiencies by saying that there are none
(implying that his equipment is working perfectly). Poor operating
practice does not equate to deficient operation of the equipment.


In FCC practice, "operation of the station" by a licensee covers
more than mere operation of the equipment and does in fact include
operating practices and non-technical rule compliance.


I wonder when the last time a ham got busted for operating
a broken transmitter (broken in the sense that it made too
much harmonics, splatter, and such). Our Yauicowood boxes
rarely drift out of spec like this.
