Apparently your use of, and interference to, these repeaters continues. In view of the above, your renewal application will not be routinely granted. The Commission may need additional information from you in order to determine your qualifications to be remain a Commission license, and it may be necessary to designate your application for an evidentiary hearing before an Administrative Law Judge.

CC: FCC South Central Region ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- April 27, 2004 Mr. James D. Bell 7214 Corregidor Vancouver, WA 98664 Amateur Radio license N7IJS Case Number EB-2004-2518 Dear Mr. Bell: On February 17, 2004, we wrote you enclosing an opinion from the Ninth Circuit of the United States Court of Appeals, dated September 19, 2002. That opinion upheld the conviction and ten year sentence of a James Dalton Bell for interstate stalking and using the facilities of interstate commerce for interstate stalking, in violation of 18 U.S.C. Sections 2261A and 2261A (2) (B) (i). Section 308(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. Section 308(b), gives the Commission the authority to obtain information from applicants and licensees regarding the operation of their station and their qualifications to retain a Commission license. Accordingly, you were requested to respond to the February 17 letter within 20 days indicating whether you were the same James D. Bell as reflected in the Court of Appeals Opinion enclosed. The February 17 letter stated that if you were, the criminal conviction may reflect adversely upon your qualifications to hold an Amateur license and an administrative hearing may be designated to take evidence on that issue. Finally, our letter stated that if you are the same James D. Bell, you may wish to provide additional information on the convictions, for consideration by the Commission; or you may wish to voluntarily submit your license for cancellation in order to avoid a hearing on the issue. We asked that you indicate your preference in your response. In your responses dated March 10 and 24, 2004, you disputed our authority to obtain the information requested, and threatened to sue the Commission claiming that our letter was in retaliation for a lawsuit you had filed. In fact, we unaware of any such lawsuit, and any lawsuit you choose to file, and any defendants you choose to name, is a matter entirely up to you. The information we sought is relevant to your qualifications to retain your Amateur license. You should be aware that in 1990, the Commission revised its character qualifications policy, expanding the types of non-FCC-related misconduct that it would consider as bearing on licensee or applicant character qualifications (Policy Regarding Character Qualifications in Broadcast Licensing, Policy Statement and Order, 5 FCC RCD 3252 (1990) (Character Policy Statement), recon. granted in part, denied in part, 6 FCC Rcd 3448 (1991), further recon. granted, 7 FCC Rcd 6564 (1992). The Commission concluded that "a propensity to comply with the law generally is relevant to the Commission's public interest analysis, and that an applicant's or licensee's willingness to violate other laws, and, in particular, to commit felonies, also bears on our confidence that an applicant or licensee will conform to FCC rules and policies. The 1990 Character Policy Statement applies to Amateur Radio licensees just as it does to all other FCC licensees ( See, e.g., Herbert L. Schoenbohm, Decision, 13 FCC Rcd 15028 (1998), recon. denied, 13 FCC Rcd 23774 (1998), aff'd in part, dismissed in part sub nom. Schoenbohm v. FCC, 204 F.3d 243 (2000), cert. denied, 121 S. Ct. 405 (2000); Leslie D. Brewer, Order to Show Cause, Notice of Order of Suspension, Notice of Opportunity for Hearing, and Notice of Apparent Liability for a Forfeiture, 16 FCC Rcd 5671, licenses revoked, 16 FCC Rcd 12878 (2001). For your convenience we are enclosing the April 23, 2004, revocation order in the case of Roger Thomas Scaggs, W5EBC. Additionally, we have reviewed your legal analysis outlined in your letters referenced above, and suggest that you may wish to retain counsel to assist you in submitting any future ones. Enclosu 4 pages CC: FCC Western Regional Director ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Yucaipa, CA: Pursuant to an audit of a January 16, 1999, W5YI-VEC Amateur Radio examination session, the FCC has issued retesting orders to 10 Technician class licensees in North Hills, Northridge, Van Nuys, Palmdale and San Diego, California. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Page last modified: 08:08 AM, 18 May 2004 ET Page author: Copyright © 2004, American Radio Relay League, Inc.

So a few Cb'rs get busted out of tens of thousands, it just shows that Hams are just as bad, don't follow the rules any better. 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. Since you seem to like posting these things, why don't you do your duty and turn Doug in for his crimes? Come on Lee, you are so gung ho to post this drivel here to start flames. Do your Ham duty and turn Doug in for his crimes to his family and the ham community for selling modified cb's. LOL!!!

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.

Now who's the ignorant one .................... ROTFLMFAO!!!! Oh Leland, quit now while your behind..... Not only are the drivers at risk from being fired the companies they work for face stiff fines for allowing the violations to occur.

There are plenty of hungry unemployed truck drivers out there who are more than willing to follow the law. Agreed, but you still haven't proved that the drivers were even reprimanded, let alone fired. You have some sort of crystal ball into those companies, to see what happens internally? Yeah right! and the FCC wasn't going to do anything about it. Both claims are wrong.

Same to you, you are like a bug, attracted to the headlights................ SQUISH!!!!!!!!!!!! there you are, another causualty on a windshield. 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. Yeah, but he offered the radio, then offered to modify it for extra freqs for the buyer, no matter who bought it. Defend him all you want, he's a felon and your defending a felon, a losing proposition anyway you slice it. 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. Oh but I do Leland, been there, seen it, done it, you on the other hand are doing nothing but sinking your own ship. Defending a known felon, repeater jammer. Talking like you know the union contracts of the trucking firms from OK City, Ok & Lithonia Ga, when you don't know squat! Go ahead and email, better yet, call the local union for both, have them post where it's against union rules to have anything other than a cb in union trucks..........LMAO!!!! -- Leland C.
