Hmm Brain responding to a post i haven't seen yet
Ya gotta love seeing Markie responding to Burke's posts calling
him "Brain"...
he doesn't mind
Sure he does.
BB say he oesn't
The very, very small mind of Robeson thinks it's a baaad thing to call
me. He lies awake at night thinking of names to call people.
BTW nobody gotta love Stevie just because you say so
And where did I say so, Markie?
never said you said it
you hacked up the post enough so that I not sure but I think BB said
you gotta love Stevie
I disagreed
I do disagree with more folks that just yourself Stevie
The prozac people gotta love Steve.
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
(A) It's not a "band". It's five discreet channels.
so?
Mark's logic is perfect. Steve's reply is not applicable.
(B) The mode restriction is due to other adjacent channel users
that we must dovetail with...Not due to any altruistic debate over
Morse Code use or testing.
and I am as cappable as they are or you are of using USB on the bands
or channels or whatever you care to call em
since Morse Code is forbidden there there is NO logical reason that
Morse Code test should be required in order to operate there, or at
worst a tech liecnsee with CSSE for the general writen test, should be
able to operate there
Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner!!!
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
Sure there is.
Nope
It's all PFM for the followers of St. Hiram.
YOU need to read how it's worded.
The international treat gives individual administrations the
OPTION of requiring code testing.
yes I know that
but given the only legal barriar to assgining freqs was the treaty the
FCC was free to assign them to tech's
If they can do that then there is NO legal magic
Indeed as BB has pointed out Techs are allowed to operate below 30mhz
NOW which you claim is illegal
You go read the rules before you lecture others
Hmmm? I don't think so. Tech's with a 5WPM Farnsworth CSCE can.
Guess what...?!?!
The United States is in compliance with the treaty.
Never said otherwise
I didn't see you say otherwise either.
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
What? Huh?
defunct provision
grow up
I have. And someday you will too. But not today, apparently.
nope you haven't
