*YOU* have no room to talk Mr k4yz !!!!! When are you going to post proof k1man was cited by the fcc? from NEWSLINE RADIO - CBBS EDITION #29 - POSTED 06/20/91: "Problems seem to be mounting for International Amateur Radio Network net manager Glen Baxter K1MAN. In early February he was served another Notice of Apparent Liability from the FCC. This one to the tune of $1600 for allegedly violating FCC prohibitions on broadcasting in the amateur service. The FCC contends that portions of Baxter's ham news bulletins constitute broadcasting and broadcasting announcements soliciting membership in the IARN. This brings to $3700 the amount that K1MAN may have to antie up if his appeals are turned down by the FCC and by the courts." ---------------------------------------------------------------- from NEWSLINE RADIO - CBBS EDITION #35 - POSTED 11/20/91 "FCC field Operations Bureau Chief, Richard M. Smith, has moved to stop the International Amateur Radio Network bulletins from being transmitted on the hambands. In a four page letter dated August 27th, Smith affirmed a $1500 monetary forfeiture imposed on Glen Baxter K1MAN last year by the FCC's Belfast, Maine Monitoring Station. Baxter was cited for alleged broadcasting and alleged interference caused by the broadcasts. Baxter immediately requested reconsideration by the Field Operations Bureau. He argued that his broadcasts were, in fact, FCC authorized information bulletins. He also claimed that the alleged interference was no different than that caused by the ARRL's W1AW when it takes to the air each day. But Smith disagreed and upheld the charges and the imposed $1500 fine. As a result, K1MAN now says that he will take the matter to the full Commission. On September 29th Baxter filed a six page Petition for Review that requests the commission undertake the resolution of the issues involved in the case. Baxter has also issued a statement that says he will continue to fight even if it means taking the case to the United States Supreme Court. The government also appears to be getting ready for a long and involved legal fight." --------------------------------------------------------------- Dave K8MN |
