Also, (is this guy REALLY this stupid...?!?!) the "60 meter band"

Actually, you are. He is the one who stated, "interesting that a band
rquiring code testing forbids code use." Morse Code testing is for
"below 30MHz."

well said

The FCC could of course have allowed it to techs and frankly they
should have


Why?


Because it is a NoCode band and logicaly should not require a code test
to use it if code is forbidden


The 5Mhz channels still fall below 30Mhz.


So what?

Is it a newsflash to you that S25.2 has changed?

There is NO LEGAL magic at 30Mhz there was but no more


There's a frequency, I think 5.170 off the top of my head, that all
amateurs in Alaska are allowed to use for emergencies. Includes
Technicians. Oooops. Violates the defunct treaty.


Several points:

(1) The exact frequency is 5167.5KHz...or 5.1675MHz if you
prefer) ...However it's restricted to stations (ALL FCC licensed
stations...) in or within 50 miles of the State of Alaska, and is
strictly for Emergency use only. One discreet channel. And it's not
an "Amateur" channel. Amateurs are allowed on this frequency as an
accomodation to safety. A real stretch to cite it as a "violation" of
any treaty.

(2) The treaty you refer to is NOT "defunct". It is still very
much in force. It HAS been ammended, however present United States
rules and regulations as they pertain to the treaty are in compliance
with said treaty.


so he should have defunct provision

grow up


FYI...Since you've been in a time warp (and obviously enjoy making
a fool out of yourself rather than use a search engine to do some
research),

You're the one who made the mistake then attacked Mark over it. Makes
you the idiot.

the United States STILL requires that an Amateur licensee to
have passed Element 1 to operate below 30Mhz.

No it does not


Yes, it does.


nope

it requires them to be tested on bands assigned to the
general and extra bands


Uh huh....Which are...?!?!


well known to you. till they are avalable to me I'll not bother to
learn


BELOW 30MHZ ! ! ! ! !


So what


QUICK, MARKIE! REVIEW TIME!

What are the four exceptions that allow a "Technician" to act as
control operator of an Amateur Radio station below 30MHz...?!?!?


none that apply to me

and what I think you are referring isbad decision of the FCCto end
thech vs thech plus license

hopefully that mistake will be fixed


And WHAT common thread do each of those exceptions have in common
with the present Novice, General, Advanced and Extra class licensees?


so?


Now on to turth

Nothing prevents the FCC from allowing hambands anywhere in the
spectrum and assigning them to Tech class, and allowing techs without
code tests to use them

NOTHING but tradition perhaps


Techs can use Morse Code on VHF and above. I knew one who did
Quitefine at it.


Techs can use Morse Code on HF, too. But hey, I thought YOU
insisted that SOMEone has chased all the Techs away...?!?!


indeed he has you chase them away not all stay away

Another QuiteWrongLie it seems.


nope
