Even though I disagree with almost all of it, I
think it would be better if it were sent to FCC

a lot more attention than it would as a comment.
Doesn't that seem sort of risky to you?

Sure, but that's not the issue.

WHAT exactly *IS* the issue then?

Changing the rules to what best serves the amateur radio
service, Len.

IOW, I think your proposal deserves to be discussed in a
far wider forum than rrap.

If the US amateur

[radio]

community as a whole rejects it, then no
one can say it wasn't presented at the appropriate time.

If the US amateur

[radio]

community as a whole accepts it, then
no one can say it was the result of some small group
pushing their ideas on others.

Define "amateur community."

In the case of FCC regulations, any person or group that is interested
enough to comment on proposed revisions to the
FCC rules affecting amateur radio.

That includes but is not limited to licensed radio amateurs,
unlicensed persons who are interested in amateur radio,
equipment manufacturers, clubs, national, regional and local
amateur radio organizations, and other interested parties.

I've never advocated that *any* interested party not be heard.
Never told anyone to "shut the hell up" in a newsgroup...

What's your definition of "amateur [radio] community", Len?

btw, thanks again for confirming what I had
long suspected....

BUZZ the issue is what best allows the ARS to serve the public interest
