Details online... http://www.oregonlive.com/news/index...tlaws_dri.html http://gov.oregonlive.com/bill/HB2377/ It appears that the exemption for hams was an amendment introduced in the Senate. http://www.leg.state.or.us/09reg/mea...2377.a1sa.html says, (i) To a person who holds a valid amateur radio operator license issued or any other license issued by the Federal Communications Commission and is operating an amateur radio; (j) To a person who operates a two-way radio device that transmits radio communication transmitted by a station operating on an authorized frequency within the citizens' or family radio service bands in accordance with rules of the Federal Communications Commission; I'm curious if anyone knows how this got added to the bill at the last minute. Do we have a ham who is an Oregon senator? 73, Steve KB9X |
