And Basically, the FCC just says this is the allowable frequencies, and
where they are located.


OK so far, except it should be "these are the allowable..." and once the
frequencies are stated you know "where they are located".

The ARRL Band Plan says this is our frequencies and this is how you can
use them.


Essentially, except it should be "these are our frequencies and this is how
you should use them".

The FCC explain's how power is measured and how side bands affects
performance and defines interference.


Not quite.

They even go so far as to explain how much spectrum your signal is
allowed to occupy and how close to band limits you are allowed to
approach.


Straying off into la-la land here.

As far as the log went, up and until recently - you still had to keep a
log for 60 meters, - before the power increase and you are only allowed
to operate into a dipole antenna.


Yep, into la-la land.

Operations concidered experimental, i.e. performed under a waiver, require
logging, normal operations do not and have not for a long time.

I think it has something to do with the algorythym's of a persons heart
and the ability to kill someone with your RF if they get too close or
have heart problems.


Nope, not even close.

The origional question is moot at this point, because you are not a
licensed amateur and you do not have permission to have emmissions
anywhere except a small segment of the UHF - called FRS and the 11
meters - which is where all of this started.


Who is it that you think is not a licensed amateur?

If you had an amateur radio license, we wouldn't even be talking about
this right now, or the banter back n forth.


If you mean me, I've been licensed since 1964 and the reason for this
"banter" is that most everything you post is nonsense.

This is the purpose of the amateur radio license exams ' - to give
everyone at least a little exposure to the rules and regulations and
proper operating procedures. This is also the reason why I am dead set
against reissueing licenses to people who left their license lasp and to
allow ham in a day classes - where a person that doesn't know anything,
is allowed to cram for one day and get a license without ever having to
operate or know anything.


Rambling nonsense.

This mindset does not produce - trained radio operators - at no cost to
the government.


Ditto.
