Carved in mystic runes upon the very living rock, the last words of gw
of rec.radio.cb make plain: Methuselah Jones wrote in message .97.132... I'm not a CBer, but I'm hoping you folks can help me out. There's someone who lives near me who I'm guessing is broadcasting with excessive power (I'm assuming there are regulations concerning that?) Every time he transmits I pick him up on my TV, radio, cordless phone and computer speakers and he locks up the cordless mouse on my computer. To make it works, 99% of the time all he does is whistle, say "Heeeeeeelllo" or make other weird noises. It gets extremely irritating having to listen to him. Is there anything I can do? I've considered seeing if I can find someone who has a CB I can borrow, find out what channel(s) he's transmitting on, and ask him politely to knock it off. Failing that, is there any legal action I can take? Should I report it he http://www.fcc.gov/eb/AmaCmpl.html or is that just for Ham radio? why don't you go talk to him face to face and see what you can work out Unfortunately I lack the ability to perceive radio waves directly, and investing in RDF equipment to locate him would not be practical, nor would knocking on several hundred prospective doors and asking if they're broadcasting with excessive power. Other than that, I agree with your basic sentiment. -- Methuselah "Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you recognize a mistake when you make it again." -- Franklin P. Jones |
