Bad Neighbor
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? -- Methuselah "The gods confound the man who first found out how to distinguish the hours! Confound him, too, who in this place set up a sundial, to cut and hack my day so wretchedly into small pieces!" -- Plautus, 200 BCE |

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? The FCC enforces both. You may want to check for local regs. The FCC recently made a change that allows local jurisdictions to put regs in place that they can enforce, as long as they are in line with the FCC regs. http://www.fcc.gov/eb/tpsd/ is the particular bunch at the FCC that is best suited. Your local ham club may also have some help to offer. While it does sound like he couldn't possibly be running legal power limits (4W) there are things that you can do on your end, that will probably be of more help in the short term. Ferrite filters (radio shack) applied on cables, on the end closest to the electronics, should help. On a phone, put the filter on the phone end of the cable, on an amplifier-speaker cable, put the filter on the amp end of the cable. |

With the budget they have, though, you may not see enforcement. |
I would say that it sounds like he is running outside the law. One thing I
must say is not to approach him. Take a look around your neighbourhood for CB antennas on houses and see if cutting the coax cable takes him off the air for a while. If not then you got the wrong place so just try the next one. He must be quite close to you to do that kind of damage. When you do find the right place an Ark-welder attached to his cable cranked to full should then fix the problem for good. I believe in self policing before going to the feds.

If someone came snooping around my place and tried destroying my property, they may not live to talk about it. You can't just go cutting EVERYONE'S coax til you find the right party. Getting yourself arrested if caught and trying to explain it, is NOT going to correct the problem, but rather compound it. Let the law handle it, they will if given half a chance. |

Get your self a CB also, scream, make noises, say AUUUDDIIOOO, get a
linear, tall antenna,and say AAAUUDDDIIOOOO to him also. Sounds just like of the CBers anyway. Can't have a face to face with them, their too ****ing stupid to listen. "gw" wrote in message om...

What you do is start a log, noting everything that happens with this guy, including the day, time and duration of his transmissions, any contact you make with him, etc. If you can, record some of the interference. When you have compiled enough evidence, send him a letter (certified, return-receipt) asking him to stop. If he refuses, talk to a lawyer or paralegal about filing suit and/or charges under your local nuisance laws. -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |

Does anyone besides me remember Pres. Clinton signing the bill that
transfered authority to the local police to enforce the cb rules and regulations? I think it was attatched to the tail of another bill, and it was one of those all or none deals. If that did indeed happen, then Mr.Jones can record the activity with his VCR, and call the police while it is going on so they can see it for themselves. He may have to dig up documentation on the internet to prove to the police that they do indeed have jurisdiction over the cb band and it's operators. "Methuselah Jones" wrote in message . 97.132...

They are great guys. They do their jobs well. BUT.. They like MOST cops wouldn't know the first thing about proving the origin of a signal. NOR are they equipped to do it. To prosecute, they need EVIDENCE! Further, most magistrates I doubt are educated enough on RF to make a sound ruling in such issues. What they MAY do, is consider calling upon the likes of a local CB shop (reputable) or a 2 way radio shop to aid in proving such a case. I don't see that happening - as then you may have them hit with fees for service - falling on the tax payers expense. Yes, they could call in others, but for the report to be valid, I'm sure the magistrate would want to see proof positive of experience. A simple license doesn't mean much to some. So, though that law - I do believe - was passed, I wouldn't jump for joy in it just yet. I still say - call the FCC. Chances are, if he is tearing you up that bad, others are getting it too. Have them also contact the FCC. G.W. |

If that doesn't work, get in contact with a local ham club. Someone there will probably be willing to pinpoint the jerk. Indeed. Walk the block, find out where the interference fades in each direction, and your new friend will probably be smack in the middle of those points. Local ham club will have better means, but it sounds like this guy won't be hard to peg. |
"mrbrew" wrote in message ... Does anyone besides me remember Pres. Clinton signing the bill that transfered authority to the local police to enforce the cb rules and regulations? Localities are allowed to enact local regs, and enforce them, as long as they are not more strict than the FCC regs. Hams are notably exempt. However, they have to have local regs in place first. Nuisance might work, contact the cops on Thursday night, they'll likely be busy Fri and Sat, with the weekend traffic. |
