I wish that were completely true, Dee. There is a special exception which
allows organizations such as the ARRL to broadcast, and has opened the
door
nut-so operators such as Glenn Baxter to abuse the exception. In any
case,
there must always be a licensed control operator present and monitoring
when
an amateur station is transmitting - and a Radio Shack timer does not
meet
that requirement! OM
not true, the rules govening Information bulletins applies to all
amateur radio operators and NOT just the ARRL.
No one said "just the ARRL." However, Baxter's repeated and re-repeated
"bulletins" are what is called "disruptive jamming" and not "amateur radio
related informational" transmissions. And a Radio Shack timer is NOT a
"control operator." Un-monitored and uncontrolled transmissions ARE
illegal. So are the advertisements that are NOT "information bulletins." The
FCC needs to be decisive with this nutcase. OM
