Which F.C.C Regulation says that?


I doubt he was causing interference on the whole band. Doesn't the rule
specify
frequency only? I will have to take a look.

I looked thru the rules. I couldn't find anything substantial. I have part
97. I
do not have the CB rules. Most indicate that if you are causing harmful
interference to a band on which you are secondary, that you must leave the
frequency. I am not sure, but in this case, he might just be overloading
the
front end of the fire radio. Sounds like the guy was attempting to correct
the
problem.

Where Part 97 is concerned it does specify that we are secondary on some
bands. On the bands where we are primary we are still to avoid causing
interference any secondary users. We are also to have equipment that will
not cause interference to adjacent bands. If your stuff is operating
properly it's not real likely that you will cause interference to a fire or
police radio (that is also operating properly). HOWEVER, if you are next
door to a fire station and you are interfering with their equipment and
don't do anything about it yourself it is most likely that the FCC will make
a modification to your license reducing your power, operating hours or
operating frequencies. It happens. (No Lancer I don't have specific
examples but pick up some copies of QST.)
