"gw" wrote in message om... (Boating Safety Comm Volunteers) wrote in message . com... (rec.radio.cb,alt.fishing,rec.boats.crusing,rec.bo ats) This Saturday, August 23, beginning at 7AM EST, at least one volunteer boat will be cruising the Tampa Bay area in order to gather evidence of an alleged pirate radio operator. His name is unknown, but he goes by the handle of "Twistedhed", he is an illegal radio operator who encourages others to do the same. If you have a boat and are in the Tampa area, please join us in our effort. You will be helping to contribute to the public good. Such "radio pirates" often interfere with health and safety communications and emergency transmissions. The purpose of this Saturday's activity is to gain evidence to get "Twistedhed" busted for his freeband violations by the FCC office in Tampa. There is reason to believe "Twistedhed" may hold an amateur license. If so, his penalties for operation on the "freeband" could be very severe. Last fall the FCC tracked transmissions on 27.535 MHz to a residence. The offender initially faced a $17,000 fine. This month alone, FCC special counsel Riley Hollingsworth sent enforcement letters to amateur licensees in Georgia and California regarding unlicensed operation in and around 11 meters. If you have a boat and are in the Tampa Bay area, we need your help. To catch Twistedhed on the freeband and get him "FCC busted", we will need to have solid evidence. One way is to photograph him on his boat with a telephoto lens. Get the boat's name and reg. number also in the photo. At the same time a recording must be made of the operator illegally transmitting. It may be difficult but it CAN be done. This method has been proven successful by hams in North Carolina for catching illegal truckers on 10 meters. Be advised this is NOT stalking or harassment Bull****! you are promoating stalking and harrassment. You sure look spiffy in your nice brown shirt. Tell us do you have your jackboots yet? you know asshole you are a real piece of **** for cross posting this crap......... |
