What's a "top post" and what section of the FCC codes is that rule found?
Once I know this information, I will comply fully with the regulation.

It's never a good idea to use vigilante tactics to solve a problem. There
are rules for which all of us must abide.

One of those rules is that we must never top post.

One of those rules is that we must
not intentionally block or interfere with another transmission that is in
progress. We must all share the frequencies in an orderly fashion.

These are the rules. If we were to all ignore these rules and transmit
whenever, however, and wherever we pleased, there would be mass chaos on
most bands. The rules are structured and enforced by the FCC. I cannot
condone any other approach to eliminating unruly examples like K1MAN--as
frustrating as that approach may be.

A: Top posting

It is FAR from over, after the FCC makes it's decision it goes to Court
of Appeal where he can challenge the FCC rules and or decision. If he
transmits, he will be unlicensed which can speed the process to the
court systems like I said it's FAR from over.

Wayne Green had by far the best solution to the problem back in 1992:

"While I can appreciate your frustration with Baxter, which I share,
your
approach to disenfranchising him seems to indicate that you either do
not
read my editorials or at least don't remember them. I've God knows how
many
times been quite blunt about NOT annoying the FCC with our problems.
That's
not only a waste of time, it's downright dangerous... and can cause far
more
trouble than poor little Baxter. Please remember that we keep trying to
convince the FCC that we are self-regulating. Note the term "self."

If a few hams ever want to get rid of Baxter that's not all that
difficult... and you don't even have to pay a hit man to clean off
14,275.
All it takes is a little creativity and some coordinated effort.

As a matter of fact it would be fun to wipe out Baxter. And you wouldn't
even have to have a small group of like-minded hams drive to Maine with
hack
saws for his coax and tower or a concentrated campaign to turn his
neighbors
against him with propaganda. No, all it would take is a few hams with
good
signals and some coordination.

I'm sure you can come up with much more fitting tortures for Baxter than
anything I could dream up, but my mind turns to getting the channel
about
ten minutes before his broadcasts with my own anti-IARN broadcasts. I'll
bet
I could come up with some material which would burn Baxter, yet would
not
quite be actionable. Or I might tape one of his broadcasts and just
repeat
it as a "service" right on top of him and wipe him out. I've got as good
a
signal as anyone and I'm only a couple hundred miles from him. Knowing
the
love they have for him in Maine I'm sure you can find one, two or even
three
strong stations fairly near him to join in the effort to "help" him get
his
broadcasts out.

Of course if you don't know anyone capable of outsmarting Baxter, then
you
have no choice but to give up and take up stamp collecting. Baxter may
be
loud, but I haven't yet seen any signs of a three digit IQ behind the
mess
he's been making for several years.

If you do decide to actually do something instead of wasting your time
on
the FCC and ARRL, please let me know. "

Cheers ...
