Many of us LIKE the law as it is, it keeps "yes men" off the freqs. Same analogy as the gun issue...when guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns...no, yoo won't find many freebanders lobbying fo r change to open the freqs because the law as it reads, doesn't bug us. There's a big difference here, Buckaroo, and that is firearms are LEGAL in most places in the United States. The ILLEGAL use of a firearm is a felony. Your operating of a radio transmitter on unauthorized frequencies is ILLEGAL...PERIOD. It's NOT a "freedom" thing. No rationalization is even needed except to reply to folks that repeatedly ask over and over, "Why?" It is these folks that feel they need a reason why we do what we do, not us. You're right..."...No rationalization is even needed..." It's against the law for good reasons, the most significant being that you have "stolen" those frequencies from other users of the spectrum who are now forced to do thier business else where. That's expensive, and sometimes it's dangerous. If it were limited to 11 meters, it probably wouldn't be an issue, but the "freebander blight" is spreading out to the Maritime frequencies, both HF and VHF, military frequencies, and other business users, among others. I am persoanlly aware of numerous "interruptions" of traffic due to some ignoramus trying to "break in" for a "signal report" on military frequencies and Civil Air Patrol's frequencies. Don't wrap yourself up in that "free spirit" crap. You're breaking the law and disrupting the use of the spectrum. Steve Robeson, K4YZ |

They are also forging and muck stirring... that was not "Twistedhed" and it did not come through WebTV as the person would have you think... Message-ID: NNTP-Posting-Host: news-front1.voila.fr X-Trace: news.x-echo.com 1067801939 1725 195.101.94.106 (2 Nov 2003 19:38:59 GMT) X-Complaints-To: These people are purposely forging and cross posting in an attempt to start flame wars and Ham vs CB wars. Sometimes they post messages against illegal use, other times they post messages praising it - using different names and forges. It's just a childish game. Regards, Peter. |
