But please don't.


And

It does seem, IMHO, to be unwise to set yourself up to create enemies
when you don't have to.


Which is WHY I have consistently taken issue with the almost monthly
articles in QST about how to violate the contract you signed when you
moved into your house.

The FCC Grant to use spectrum is just that. A grant to use a wide
variety of spectrum. It doesn't carry with it all the other things
that some people think it does. Like the right to violate a written
contract, or negate planning and inspection on towers etc.
