I do not believe that one way transmissions should be legal on the
amateur bands.

Period.



No bulletins about hurricane Katrina and communications emergency
activations?

Not unless it is part of an emergency net, and therefore inherently part
of two way conversations. If it is just a broadcast, turn on Fox News or
CNN.

No code practice sessions?

No. With the dropping of Element 1, code testing can now be self taught.
Get on the air, and find someone who will QSO wit ya. And no anyhow.

No remote control of satellites?

That is part of establishing (or cutting off) two way communications

No remote control of model airplanes?

Is that us?


It is currently allowed under the FCC rules. And some people do use it for
that. I forget the details since I don't get into remote control models.
