In fact, being patented, it's ILLEGAL to do any of that. Which means it's not amateur radio. Ok but if you have bought a commercial transceiver for amateur radio, can you look at or improve upon any part of it? E.g. the firmware that is running on the microprocessor(s) that control it? Probably, yes. Done similar in the past (modified firmware/programming software to let commercial radios go out of band). But if I want to operate on a given mode (AM/FM/SSB etc), I can build my own, should I so choose, from whichever components I so choose. If I was to lose my mind and choose to operate D-Star, I MUST buy an AMBE chip. |
