What is there to debate, there is a large network of IRLP nodes all over
the world on Amateur Radio which proves it is a popular and valid part
of the hobby.


There are plenty of CBers all over the world, but that doesn't prove
CB is part of amateur radio.

You are clutching at straws now, only *LICENSED* Amateur operators can
use IRLP, so why bring CB into it.



Not true. You are making an assumption that only *LICENCED* amateurs
ever press a PTT and transmit. IRLP is no more secure from unlicenced
transmissions than amateur radio itself.


IRLP does *NOT* interfere with your use of Amateur Radio, so **** off
and leave it alone!



Debating is not one of your strong points, it appears.


73,


Sure, anyone could key up and talk but that does *NOT* make them a
licensed Amateur though.

They can't just log in on a computer and start talking, that side is
VERY Secure.
