N2EY:

I think all my college professors were in agreement on one point--YOU
MUST FIRST LEARN THE RULES!!!

But, only so you can effectively break them later--if they were not in
agreement with this second part, at least, I find those who are in
"the real world." However, that is NOT to suggest hams live in the
real world... grin

No.

The FCC says so too.

I told you to throw away that
300 baud modem and get a decent one (or revamp an old phone
modem to your needs.)

On most of the HF/MF amateur bands, amateurs in the USA are limited
to
300 baud for the transmission of "data".

Now it might be argued that sending .jpgs is an "image" mode, and is
only allowed in the 'phone subbands, with correspondingly wider
bandwidths. But there's more to it than just hooking a typical
computer
modem to an SSB rig.

Let's say some hams find a way to fit, say, 14 kbaud into an SSB
bandwidth with characteristics that will work on the HF ham bands.
And
suppose they get FCC to say it's OK and all that. The transmission
of a
1 meg .jpg will still take more than a minute with no errorchecking.

Since you didn't even understand that, you certainly won't grasp
the
rest...

Try grasping the current regulations, John....
