writes: Since the FCC is the governing authority, yes you can. Actually, the fact that FCC says something is OK for broadcasting doesn't mean they say it's OK for amateur radio. Because the two are different services, FCC can have different rules of what they allow. Not recommended though. Just because a government agency says its OK doesn't make it right. Agreed! "Alun Palmer" wrote in message .. . Jack wrote in : The question is, does this now mean we can say the F word on ham radio? I wouldn't. One argument FCC can use to defend the "different rules" thing is that broadcasting works to a published schedule and the shows are rated in advance. If you tune in Howard Stern on the radio or the Victoria's Secret Xmas special on TV, you have a pretty good idea of what you'll hear/see. But on ham radio there's no schedule, no program guide and no advance ratings. 73 de Jim, N2EY |
