If he is violating the laws of a sovereign country (including being in that country 'undocumented'), that is by definition an illegal act in that country. If XE1ABC sneaks across the Rio Grande, his Mexican amateur license status isn't material to the question of his legal status, no matter how fast he can beep. However, he violated the laws regulating radio transmissions in a foreign country. FCC Part 97 requires that licesnsed operators obey the radio transmission statutes of foreign countries, does it not? Taken to its extreme, if the FCC permits amateurs to flout Burmese radio laws, then the FCC should be willing to accept the consequences of Burmese hams coming to the USA and setting up illegal transmitting stations here. That's why we have treaties...or so I thought. |
