N9OGL:
I think my view on it was given away with the question (subject) of this thread... Simply ignore the FCC rule, as long as you are an american and using encryption for a VALID PURPOSE (and that means NOT for terrorist activities), a valid purpose would be so no one (that included the gov't (think BIG BROTHER here) is listening in. In any court of law, I do not see where it could be argued that radio is such a unique threat that encryption cannot be allowed there, yet can be done on the internet without regulation (other than you cannot share high security encryption software with other nations--and "God" himself knows that regulation is not violated!) If you are a terrorist, they can hang you for your activities, and very rightly so... John "N9OGL" wrote in message oups.com... JOHN: My point is simply that there is better ways that terrorist and other criminal elements can communicate, amateur radio isn't on of them. The encryption rules in the amateur radio service (as written) are not need (or need to be modified) and in fact may hold amateur radio back, because there are some encryption technology that is more spectrum effecient.
