DUH. I already have my "ham ticket", thankyouverymuch. You needn't
tell me the woes of buying into the commercial broadcast industry,
either; I'm well aware of the FCC's requirements for such activity.

The common thing about pirating, both 2-way, and broadcasting is...
are you ready for this revelation? -- GETTING AWAY WITH IT. That's
the PHUN of it, dear telamon.

Do yourself a favor and read up on the subject. Better yet, buy
yourself a receiver, do some tuning around, and figure it out for
yourself.

But thanks anyway for something we all already know. (DUH)

Again I pose the question, did anyone hear a broadcaster on 6.8 MHz AM
or not? Simple question deserves a simple answer, no?

As some of you may know, I've been posting on various newsgroups as
to the formation of a new group of radio outlaws. We're licensed
hams, CB'ers, Freebanders, and general phreekin'cie phreeks.

Without
going into overly boring detail as to my own personal radio

history
(you're more than welcome to check that out at the Yahoo! group's

URL
listed below if you're so inclined), a bunch of us have picked 6.8
MHz LSB for 2-way comms, in addition to 13.555 MHz USB. (And let's
not forget 11 meters and all it has to offer -- when ol' Sol

allows.)
Recently, I happened to be monitoring our 6.8 phreekin'cie and
heard a Pirate Broadcaster with quite interesting programming. It
consisted mainly of "Number 9, Number 9, Number 9 from the Beatles'
"White Album", mixed with all sorts of quite interesting and
innovative loops from other Shortwave related broadcasts, etc.


If all you are interested in is 2-way communications then why don't

you
get your ham ticket?

Pirates are a different story as a broadcasting station and license

are
a much larger cost and a lot more effort to get.
