I already know about it. So some bad Hams get busted proves the system works. For the big mouthed CBers claiming the FCC doesn't do anything looks like they're dead wrong. -- Leland C. Scott KC8LDO Who cares Leland? I know that Cb'rs get busted. So a few Cb'rs get busted out of tens of thousands, Specifically they were truckers. If you investigate further you will discover that in the union contracts the drivers are allowed to use CB radios only. No export radios, no modified CBs etc. That was mention specifically when UPS drivers were caught. Not only are the drivers at risk from being fired the companies they work for face stiff fines for allowing the violations to occur. The companies are responsible for making sure their employees don't violate the law. If I had a driver that cost me $7,500 to $10,000 in fines I'd fire them. There are plenty of hungry unemployed truck drivers out there who are more than willing to follow the law. it just shows that Hams are just as bad, don't follow the rules any better. The point for a long time big by mouthed CBer have claimed that incurions in to the Ham 10m band was a minor deal and the FCC wasn't going to do anything about it. Both claims are wrong. Having a few Hams contacted by the FCC for Part 97 violations does not change the fact that there are millions of CBers, there are only 650K to 750K Hams, operating illegally. I wonder if the FCC knows about Doug's felony conviction? From what I read, he could have his license revoked. Maybe someone should forward those court papers along with the posts offering a modified cb for sale, throw in a few of his colorful posts for a little icing. I'll bet they won't do a thing. In fact somebody mostly alread has and nothing has happed. Since you seem to like posting these things, why don't you do your duty and turn Doug in for his crimes? I don't turn in CBers either, I just like posting the news, so fair is fair. Come on Lee, you are so gung ho to post this drivel here to start flames. It takes two. If you just ignored it then there wouldn't be a problem. But you can't leave it alone. You're attracted to it like a moth to a bug zapper. Do your Ham duty and turn Doug in for his crimes to his family and the ham community for selling modified cb's. Hams can sell all the modified equipment we want per Part 97, go look it up. LOL!!! Yeah, lot of laughs on this side because your trying to argue a point while being totally ignorant of the rules. It would be different if you knew what you were talking about. But that's been the case with most of the illegal CBers on this group, big mouth and no facts. -- Leland C.

![]() "Twistedhed" wrote in message ... Bull****. No such wording in trucker's union contracts. Such rules are completely voluntary and enacted by the trucking companies. No export radios, no modified CBs etc. That was mention specifically when UPS drivers were caught. Spread your cheeks wide Twirt and prepare to take it like a man. And I'll bet you'll even like it too. Quoted from full text article following this. "UPS Attorney Daniel N. Tenfelde last week assured Hollingsworth that his company was taking its Warning Notice seriously and has launched a full investigation. "We discovered that some employees had obtained CB radios that contained a mechanism allowing them to switch frequencies into the 10-meter Amateur Radio band," he said in a January 28 letter. "It is not UPS policy to allow equipment such as this to be used in our vehicles." He said UPS' contract with the Teamsters Union allows only for CB radios. Tenfelde said UPS is working with its transportation and labor groups to let drivers know that such unlicensed operation violates both UPS policy and FCC regulations." As you can CLEARLY READ it says UPS' contract with the Teamsters Union allows only for CB radios. Twirt you lie to cover the truth, but its out there and there is NOTHING you can do to stop people from finding it!! http://www.arrl.org/news/stories/2004/02/02/101/?nc=1 ____________________ FCC Goes After Alleged 10-Meter Scofflaws NEWINGTON, CT, Feb 2, 2004--The FCC is working on at least two fronts to eliminate unlicensed operation from the 10-meter band. Earlier this month, FCC Special Counsel Riley Hollingsworth sent warning notices to two shipping companies regarding reports to the Commission that some of the companies' vehicles may be the source of illegal radio transmissions on the amateur band. One of the companies, UPS, has offered its full cooperation. "Many truckers use CB radio, which does not require a license," Hollingsworth pointed out in letters earlier this month to UPS offices in Ohio and Indiana and to R&L Transfer Inc of Ohio. "However, any person using a radio transmitter on the Amateur Radio bands must possess a station and operator license." Hollingsworth asked the over-the-road shippers to advise their drivers that such radio operation could subject them to heavy fines and seizure of their radio equipment. UPS Attorney Daniel N. Tenfelde last week assured Hollingsworth that his company was taking its Warning Notice seriously and has launched a full investigation. "We discovered that some employees had obtained CB radios that contained a mechanism allowing them to switch frequencies into the 10-meter Amateur Radio band," he said in a January 28 letter. "It is not UPS policy to allow equipment such as this to be used in our vehicles." He said UPS' contract with the Teamsters Union allows only for CB radios. Tenfelde said UPS is working with its transportation and labor groups to let drivers know that such unlicensed operation violates both UPS policy and FCC regulations. In a parallel development, the FCC issued a Citation to Jonathan Edward Stone, doing business as Omnitronics/Pacetronics for alleged violation of §302(b) of the Communications Act and §2.803(a)(1) of the Commission's rules. An investigation by the FCC's Dallas field office led the Commission to allege that Omnitronics/Pacetronics was offering more than two dozen uncertificated "Citizens Band" transceivers via its Web site. The FCC says Omnitronics/Pacetronics was marketing the units as Amateur Radio equipment, which does not require FCC certification (formerly known as "type acceptance"), and a check of the company's Web site generally confirmed that assertion. "The Commission has evaluated radio frequency devices similar to those listed and concluded that the devices at issue are not only amateur radios but can easily be altered for use as Citizens Band devices as well," said the FCC Citation from FCC Dallas District Director James D. Wells. The FCC said it concluded that the devices fall within the definition of CB transmitters and therefore "cannot legally be imported or marketed in the United States." That would include so-called "export" models, the Citation said, pointing to a 2000 revision of §2.1204(a)(5) of its rules. Citing §95.655(a) of the FCC's rules, Wells noted that "dual-use CB and Amateur Radio of the kind at issue here may not be certificated under the Commission's rules." He said the clarification was added to Part 95--which governs the Citizens Band--"to explicitly foreclose the possibility of certification of dual-use CB and amateur radios and thereby deter use by CB operators of frequencies allocated for Amateur Radio use." The FCC Citation also warned Unitronics/Pacetronics regarding the requirement of FCC certification of external RF amplifiers or amplifier kits capable of operating below 144 MHz as well as the prohibition against marketing RF amplifiers or amplifier kits capable of operating between 24 and 35 MHz. Most of the transceivers in question carry brand names unfamiliar within the amateur community--such as Connex, Galaxy, General and Superstar. Radios being marketed as amateur gear are shown on the Unitronics/Pacetronics Web site displaying 27.185 MHz on the dial--CB channel 19. Some of the purported amateur transceivers have only a channel readout display, not a frequency display, and only operate on AM or FM modes. For an additional charge, Omnitronics/Pacetronics offers such accessories as roger beeps, "turbo echo" and what it calls "basic" and "professional" alignment. The only recognized amateur manufacturer on the list in the FCC's Citation is Ranger. The FCC Citation singled out the Ranger models RCI-2950DX--a 10-meter transceiver--and RCI-2970DX--a dual-band 10/12-meter unit. Both are shown on the Omnitronics/Pacetronics Web site displaying 27.185 MHz, and the ad copy notes, "you can use this radio in the roughest environments. (Yes, even a Mack.)" The February QST 1992 review of the Ranger RCI-2950 made note of its CB heritage and features--such as a "roger beep" and a public-address speaker jack. The ARRL Lab said it may be possible to modify the '2950 for operation outside the amateur bands. The RCI-2970DX was reviewed in QST for October 2001. The ARRL Lab said that using then-available information, it was unable to modify the '2970DX it tested for operation on non-amateur frequencies. Omnitronics/Pacetronics is not related to Omnitronics, LLC, the Ohio company that manufactures Astatic microphones--including the D-104--and other microphones, some used for mobile CB applications. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------- -- Leland C.
