They need to be upfront and honest that their intent is to widen the phone bands. My director will hear my opinion on this and I'll probably file a comment ont the petition and if the FCC puts out an NPRM. I'm not necessarily against some widening of the phone bands (afterall the "Novice" segments are lightly used) but I am against the idea that they are not bothering to state that it is part of the purpose of this petition. And I believe that 30m is way too narrow to add a SSB segment. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE |

Flint, N8UZE they are probably trying to keep the technical 'what mode where' discussion separate from the licensing 'who goes where' discussion. they probably think they can win each one separately, but argue them together and there may be too many people who won't buy one or the other and come out against both. right now they happen to line up on the same dividing line, but there is no practical reason that they must. |

Personally, I think ARRL's petition is waaaaaaaaaaay too conservative. Let's all propose the following re-write of Part 97. snip All very good and logical but it doesn't have the full support of the elite ruling NAAR (formerly ARRL) membership. Here is a much shorter version: 97.1 Amateur Radio Service is whatever NAAR says it is. 97.2 Refer to 97.1. ======== There, that should give NAAR what what it has wanted all along, assures the ARRL Press division to keep on printin' and making money for the League, thereby keeping Dave S. assured of pulling down $150K a year for as long as he is Trustee of the "Residence Radio Club." The Church of St. Hiram can be assured of a full collection plate and all may live happily ever after on Fantasy Island with Mr. Roarke and Tattoo and reruns. Everyone licensed before 11 Sep 01 gets a lovely medal for being "homeland security before there was homeland security" and a nice certificate, suitable for framing. Amen, |

Steve, K4YZ Hello, Steve Yep, tongue way way into cheek LOL :)) Especially when I say "or something like that" ... BTW, double sideband with a 90 shifted full carrier yields phase modulation. I would almost suspect that might be legal under the "regulation by bandwidth", but am not sure. Currently, only in the high end of 10 meters and above (along with standard FM). Something like 29 to 29.7 MHz. Somewhere around there. At this point, I'd mention that if I were to fire up FM on 10 meters, I'd sure as heck break out the rules as I am not exactly sure where it is permitted on 10 or the exact frequency of the FM repeaters on 10. Ya can't know everything; as long as you can look it up, you'll be fine ;) 73 from Rochester, NY Jim AA2QA |

That's fine by me as just 20% of hams who use HF also use CW on a regular basis. "20% of hams", or "20% of hams who responded to a particular survey"? Now if you ran that same survey by a group of QRP homebrewers, the result would be closer to 100%. Statistics is a powerful tool only if care is taken in how the sample population is chosen. But remember, the results only apply to that *sample*, not an *entire* population (unless sample = entire, which is quite rare). 73, Jeff KH6O -- Chief Petty Officer, U.S. Coast Guard Mathematics Lecturer, University of Hawaii System |

Didn't take you long to reply. Who's ingesting alcohol? I've to go to work tomorrow morning (like 5:00 AM). What is your excuse? I've put perfect copy on paper using a manual typewriter at 40 words per minute. A number of minutes' worth. My mention of 40 or 50 words per minute was a reference to some of the wonder boys whose great exploits simply consist of 'cut and paste' on the Internet. I'm simply saying that a good operator can likely keep up with most folks that are trying to enter original content and not simply pass along a digital picture, or a 'cut-and-paste' from someone else. Then again, original content might be something you aren't familiar with. With due regard, Jim AA2QA |

A fantastic tale in its day but back to present day what is the benefit? I think you will find most people will know you can say anything via Morse just like you can talking so being amazed at what can be passed via Morse seems a strange thing to highlight. You can pass much more information by talking. In the past fair enough but times have moved on. Morse is now an out-dated form of communication practised now by just radio Amateurs. To any Amateurs who like Morse then that's fine for them. They will learn it and use it where they like and I have no problems at all about that. But... to ramble on about it constantly and belittle anyone not really interested in "just the Morse" side of radio is a bit unfair branding them as inferior radio users (not aimed at you personally here) Amateur radio can still be a fascinating Hobby without it, or as I would like, not a forced issue but one of choice.

Not a dustman are you? I've put perfect copy on paper using a manual typewriter at 40 words per minute. A number of minutes' worth. My mention of 40 or 50 words per minute was a reference to some of the wonder boys whose great exploits simply consist of 'cut and paste' on the Internet. If that is adiquate then whats wrong with cut and paste? Only an idiot would sit there re-typing out something that could just as easily be cut and pasted unless it was an original work of course. I'm simply saying that a good operator can likely keep up with most folks that are trying to enter original content and not simply pass along a digital picture, or a 'cut-and-paste' from someone else. A good operator? Depends on your impression of a good operator. A good operator to me is someone who uses the radio sensibly, stays legal and cares about interference and deals with it if caused. Someone who goes on about ooh i can do this or i can do that trying to put themselves above other operators in my opinion have a vanity problem. As far as pictures go id rather use the internet as its a more appropriate media for that. Then again, original content might be something you aren't familiar with.

Regards, Graham -- --------------- Radio is only a Hobby. Don't let it rule your life... 73's - Graham Hello, Graham I also do not see the need to force cw on anyone. Still, when one attempts to tell me that more information can be passed via voice, I can only agree if the communications is something like "meet me at Joe's bar at 10:00 PM". If there is something like "medium pizza with cheeze and sausage to 1235 W. Cauncy Blvd", then someone is going to have to write down that information. This *will* slow the maximum data transfer to what can be put on paper. Assuming one is not connected to the Internet where they can simply print the information, I must admit that I cannot print nor write as fast as I can copy cw to a keyboard (or typewriter). In that case, cw might be as efficient as anything else. This is, of course, a questionable case. The time I mentioned (the perfect copy at 40) was a weather bulletin which gave latitude, longitude, and a multitude of other data to boot. This could, of course, be transmitted by voice, but would absolutely *have* to be put on paper (unless someone had a photographic memory that *never* made a mistake). In that case, sans digital data transmission (citor, amtor, teletype, or whatever), voice could not possibly be faster as it had to be put to paper. In this case, the limit would be how fast this could be transcribed to paper. In closing, I would reiterate that I agree about cw should not be a forced issue. My only issue is that some folks feel that it is terribly slow. Compared to the Internet or other digital transmissions, sure. Compared to voice .... it all depends ;) 73 from Rochester, NY Jim AA2QA |
