Hehhe. Alun, you should be on the welcoming committee for this dude!

It's a difficult question. Do we applaud him for wanting to go legal? Or
do we slam him for ever having operated illegally? I have known former
pirate radio ooperators whose behaviour on the ham bands after they got a
licence was exemplary.

Not sure what an "ooperator" is, but there are other criminals whose
subsequent behavior is also exemplary. Should their past behavior be
ignored? The difference is only in degree, not in kind.


If they have already been punished in some way by the courts, then the
answer to your query is (or should be) yes. If they have not been punished
in some way by the courts, then, de facto, they have not been found guilty
of any crime, and are to be presumed innocent.

What a great concept! If they've been punished, then hands off. If
they've NOT been punished, then hands off also.

I'd say you're a natural-born criminal lawyer (in both senses of the
word).


It's our system of law. They taught it to us in junior high school social
studies. I know I'm getting old, but I don't think things have changed all
that much...

Then let us hope that he is a shining beacon of behavior for the cause
of those who do away for the code test!
