(47CFRPart97.315(a). Bruce, Yes, I understand that. My initial comment was directed at the growing theme in the messages, not specifically expressed by you, that amateurs could legally use *any* transmitter as long as output power rules were not violated. It ain't necessarily so. A small nit.. "any transmitter" is allowed.. the rules in 97.315 apply ONLY to external RF power amplifiers, and the class of "forbidden amplifiers" is actually quite small (a subset of those intended for use at an amateur station) And this is in keeping with the concept in the regulation of Amateur radio: allowing basically everything and exclude a small fraction; which is different than the whole rest of radio, where it's: exclude most things, and allow only specific things. |

"Modifications" are trivially easy. Like.. The front panel has been modified to add a placard indicating that operation at more than XXX plate current is not permitted when operating in amateur bands. And that whole "offered for sale" kind of thing is a huge regulatory morass, with a lot of "guidance" from local FCC officials on what might or might not prompt more attention. It's one thing to have an obscure ham oriented website and sell widgets obviously intended only for hams.. another to have a big online-store and sell obviously commercial products with a "wink, wink" disclaimer about only selling to hams, when in actuality, anyone with a credit card can get it. The FCC enforcement logs are full of things like folks are selling "experimenter" video transmitters, but doing no substantive validation of the buyer. Ditto the stores selling various and sundry CB equipment. ---------------- Anyone can own any piece of radio gear legally. Restrictions are on sales and usage. So, while it is not unlawful to own a 10kw AM transmitter, even by a CB operator, or someone that doesn't operate radio at all, it IS illegal/unlawful for a business to sell new equipment to those without legal qualifications. What about salvaged/junk transmitters? I don't know. Much has changed over the years, but "presumed innocent until proven guilty" still carries a little weight here and there. Ed Cregger |

It doesn't work that way. You do not have to have type certification for legal operation in the amateur bands. You only have to have it if you SELL new amateur equipment in the USA. Home made gear, or converted gear from other services, is completely legal in the USA. Always has been, hopefully always will be. CB gear must be type certified for selling and for usage. Again, amateurs are responsible for their RF emissions. The FCC could care less about the type of gear you are using. In fact, if brand new amateur gear that was compliant to type acceptance malfunctions and issues an out of spec emission, YOU as a duly licensed amateur radio operator are held responsible. Not the manufacturer. Ed, NM2K Ed, Sorry you have such a problem with basic literacy. I stand by exactly what I said. An unmodified manufactured amp that is not "certificated" is not legal for use in the US Amateur Service, regardless of where it was manufactured. A constructed or modified amp is potentially legal if operated within the output power rules. Did you read something else? 73, Gene W4SZ --------------- And my point is that ANY amplifier is legal, as long as it is operated within the limits specified by the FCC for the particular amateur band and license class of the operator. No type acceptance is necessary at all. Am I missing something Gene? Bear with me, please. I'm on a lot of medication these days and I make mistakes occasionally. Thank you. Ed Cregger |

I don't believe it is legal to use an unmodified DaveMade or other such beast in amateur service, at any power level. I think that is the point of 97.315. It is about more than just "operation" within the rules. I realize there are a million ways to get around any potential limitations resulting from these loosely worded and rarely enforced regulations. However, if for some reason the FCC wanted to go after someone I doubt that amateur "modifications" such as adding a placard or drilling a hole would carry much weight. 73, Gene W4SZ |

So we should be able to use whatever we can operate within our allocated frequencies, modes and powers.

(c) A unit is defined as a mobile transmitter-receiver. Loading standards will be applied in terms of the number of units actually in use or to be placed in use within 8 months following authorization. A licensee will be required to show that an assigned frequency pair is at full capacity before it may be assigned a second or additional frequency pair. Channel capacity may be reached either by the requirements of a single licensee or by several users sharing a channel. Until a channel is loaded to capacity it will be available for assignment to other users in the same area. A frequency pair may be reassigned at distances 64 km. (40 mi.), 32 km. (20 mi.) for Channel 15, Chicago; Channel 20, Philadelphia; and Channel 17, Washington, or more from the location of base stations authorized on that pair without reference to loading at the point of original installation. Following authorization, the licensee shall notify the Commission either during or at the close of the 8 month period of the number of units in operation. In the Industrial Radio Services, if the base station facility is to be used by more than a single licensee, the frequency assigned to it will not be reassigned for use by another facility within 64 km.
