Remember: We finally got Todd Daugherty off the net (thanks to Hal
Turner), and we can do the same to Mark Morgan. Satellite receiver
jamming isn't beyond the range of possibilities that we're considering.
It only takes a low power transmitter to completely knock out a
satellite receiver, and that can be done easily when necessary.

Join us in rec.radio.amateur.moderated for a full discussion of how and
when we can put an end to Mark Morgan's net abuse.

* FCC says no commercial credit for prior military, ham radio,
experience:
The FCC has told a California radio amateur that it will not waive a
commercial license application rule on the basis of his Amateur Radio
Morse
code qualifications. Last April, Robert E. Griffin, K6YR, of San Luis
Obispo, applied for an FCC First Class Radiotelegraph Operator's
Certificate
-- known as a T1 license -- requesting a waiver of §13.201(b)(1)(iv).
That
rule says T1 applicants must have a year's experience "sending and
receiving
public correspondence by radiotelegraph at a public coast station, a
ship
station, or both." Griffin, who's ARRL Santa Barbara Section Manager
and
transmits the West Coast Qualifying Run on approximately 3.590 MHz,
argued
that the FCC should waive the rule because it's nearly impossible in
an era
of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) to acquire
the
requisite experience and that the rule presented "an unreasonable
hardship
and a burdensome requirement." He sought credit on the basis of his
military
and Amateur Radio radiotelegraph experience, including participation
in the
Military Affiliate Radio System, in lieu of experience at a public
coast
station or ship station. In a letter
http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/DA-07-783A1.pdf
February
22, the FCC said Griffin failed to demonstrate that the rule in
question was
"inequitable or burdensome" insofar as all T1 applicants face the same
requirement, and it denied Griffin's request. "A request for relief
from the
existing requirement of §13.201(b)(1)(iv) would better be addressed in
a
rule making proceeding, rather than through the waiver process," the
FCC
allowed.
