Applying that logic, if a licensed amateur speaks on a cellphone,

Well, applying USA logic, if I had a phone patch from a cellphone to a 2m
radio, then yes, it would still be Ham Radio. Just as their LL phones
patched into their repeaters are classed as Ham Radio. There is NO
difference.

Well, fortunately phone patch is NOT amateur radio in this country.
Hopefully, it never will be.

Hopefully it will be here, and I'm sure many amateurs would wish it will be
in the land of the eternally whinging!
