What ever came of the claim that a major truck stop chain was about to
fall for selling 10 meter radio equipment? Oh, and ask Hollingsworth why
they (FCC) just implemented an unofficial policy of ignoring ALL
anonymous individual complaints for cb and hammie radio? You won't like
the answer.

Oh, it isn't over yet.

Again, I ask what "happened" to your claim at the beginning of last year
where you said a major chain was going down "soon". It didn't happen.

It was told directly to me by RH in phone conversation.

Like the answer?

If you consider that an answer..allow me,,,it's pure sophistry.

Fine, whatever--what will be will be.

Depends. I got that direct from RH himself.

You, OTH, are relying on urban/internet

legend regarding what Hollingsworth "said"

You're on a severe backslide, Jerry. In the first manner, I attributed
nothing to RH in my above statement. You somehow feel the need to
falsely claim I attributed my information from RH. On the contrary, my
info was from an internal memo in the enforcement division concerning
amateur radio and cb complaints. Again, since you are so quick to
dismiss what apparently pains you, I implore you once again to ask your
contact "why" an "unofficial" policy was enacted regarding the ignoring
of anonymous complaints. You are free to speculate and wish as hard as
you may, it won' change the fact you are dead wrong.

Wrong about what? There are two sides to any story. You have a vested
interest in keeping the status quo, I have a vested interest in keeping
unlicensed people off the
ham bands. If I am wrong, I am wrong. If you are right,
then YOU are right and I have, just like your fave ball
team loses a game, lost.

..kind of like that thing that says that Target is

against veterans.

(shug) and Kmart supports sweat shop labor...nothing of relative concern
to amateur or cb radio.

It refers to any urban legend like Microsoft paying money for a "beta" test,
or the thing that goes around from to time that Target will not support
veterans' causes. Both
are urban legends. Your "unoffficial" policy statement is
just that--an urban legend; one that people WANT to be-
lieve. One that has the "ring" of truth only because one's
fervent desire to be supported in a thought, belief, or act.

Mr Hollingsworth, indeed, has MUCH to do with enforcement of AMATEUR rules.
Thus, much of the info
comes from him via the Consumer and Governmental
Affairs Bureau. He is most concerned simply because
of the effect the illegal sales of "export" radios--namely
the incursions onto 10 and 12 Meters. Your "unofficial"
policy is still urban legend. The fact is, that it completely
countermands the Enforcement Division's real policy.

The answer is: FCC has NOT issued a policy

of "ignoring" anything.

I said "unofficial". Again, you are wrong. Wrong. Ask Riley what the
enforcement division now does anonymous complaints regarding cb or
amateur radio... Report back.

OH? How do you think those truckers get caught operating on 10 Meters? How
do you think Pacetronics
got cited? Because someone complained.

I can put ANYTHING on the net--

And you usually do,,such as your claim early last year that a chain of
truck stops was about to fall "soon" and that you had it on great
information.

just look at all the crap that appears on this

board everyday.

I skip much of it these days and try to limit myslef to pointing out
those that lie and have an angry agenda of some type and an ax to grind.

If you think FCC is going to go away or ignore
anything, you are wrong!

Go away? Again, you are reaching way too far to misattribute words to
myself...a concept quite familiar and repeatedly enacted by the losers
on this group. To my knowledge, you have never deliberately
misattributed words to another until now. Not good, Jerry, no matter
what your agenda may be. There is no reason for you to reduce yourself
to the behaviors of the lids and trolls, but perhaps you jsut can't help
yourself these days, Jerry.

There are too many complaints, both foreign

and domestic, for the problem to be ignored.

The problem is hyper-inflated and compounded by those that make
anonymous complaints. Add to that the incorrect but nevertheless
frivolous claims concerning busts and inside information that never
happen, and a direct corelation is apparent among these type.

I don't have the answer.

Jerry

That is all I asked of you, Jerry. You didn't have to reduce yourself to
deliberately misattributing claims to myself that were never made. That
is some serious frustration, Jerry.

Tell ya what. For legal reasons, I can't say anything right now. But there
are some cases coming up that may be of
interest. If they happen, it will prove that I was accurate with my info.
If they don't happen, then I'll hush. OK?
