Shipping: UPS Ground vs. FedEx Ground

What I don't understand is why ANY ham would ever use UPS after what they did to the 220 MHz band a few years ago. "They"? UPS never applied for any 220 MHz license nor do they operate on 220 MHz, then or now. The culprit was a certain "also-ran" equipment manufacturer who had a bright idea (and whose CEO had "juice" with the FCC from whence he came) but never could produce equipment that worked on that band. They approached UPS to get them interested, but UPS got tired of waiting for working equipment and looked elsewhere (800 MHz). Gotta keep the urban legends straight!! ggg -- 73 de K2ASP - Phil Kane From a Clearing in the Silicon Forest Beaverton (Washington County) Oregon |
