First of all Don't hack out the context

Sec. 97.105 Control operator duties.

(a) The control operator must ensure the immediate proper operation

of the station, regardless of the type of control.
(b) A station may only be operated in the manner and to the extent
permitted by the privileges authorized for the class of operator
license
held by the control operator.


Sec. 97.103 Station licensee responsibilities.


(a) The station licensee is responsible for the proper operation of

the station in accordance with the FCC Rules. When the control operator

is a different amateur operator than the station licensee, both persons

are equally responsible for proper operation of the station.
(b) The station licensee must designate the station control
operator. The FCC will presume that the station licensee is also the
control operator, unless documentation to the contrary is in the
station
records.
(c) The station licensee must make the station and the station
records available for inspection upon request by an FCC representative.



When deemed necessary by an EIC to assure compliance with the FCC
Rules,
the station licensee must maintain a record of station operations
containing such items of information as the EIC may require in accord
with Sec. 0.314(x) of the FCC Rules.

If you are responsible for proper operation of your station (and those ru=
les
apply equally above 30MHz as they do below), then you must have a method =
to

Doesn't say any such thing Hans

maybe it should but that is another matter

But My method is to asume my unmodifified is working fine until/unless
I have reason to believe otherwise, then send it off for mainatance by
pro's

No way I am going to try and work on my rig, can't even see the
components /circutlines have the time

determine that your station complies with the Rules. How do you do that =
at your
station?
