Around my area, pretty much everything goes... (what's legal anyway). As long as it's legal, that ought to be the test. What ever happened to the old FCC Official Observer program? These were licensed volunteers (hams just like you and me) who passed some screening exam, and then cruised the bands looking for problems. As I recall they had no 'police' power but could issue you a 'friendly reminder', backed up by "chapter and verse" if you were afoul of the rules. This reminder didn't go on any record, but was intended to take a load off the FCC monitoring stations. I suppose that 'frequent offenders' were referred upstairs, but I never heard of it. 73, RDW |
