Jose,
I am only trying to suggest whatever ideas I can to get ROS declared to
be legal. You have made such a strong case for FHSS already, that only
"saying" you were mistaken probably will not convince the FCC. They will
assume you are only changing the description so ROS appears to be legal
and will demand proof that it is not FHSS to change their minds. This is
only my personal, unbiased, opinion, as I would like very much for you
to succeed.
Essentially, you must PROVE that, spreading is NOT accomplished by means
of a spreading signal, often called a code signal, which is independent
of the data. How do you do that without disclosing the code? At this
point, I doubt that the FCC will believe mere words, because there is so
much pressure to allow ROS in HF in this country.
Keep in mind the mess that Toyota finds itself by previously denying
there is any substantial problem with unattended acceleration or braking
of their cars. That may still prove to be true (i.e. not "substantial"),
but the government here is now demanding that Toyota SHOW proof that
there is no problem, and not merely saying there is not. This is
currently a very hot topic with the government and Congress and on the
minds of everyone. So I assume likewise that PROOF will have to be SHOWN
that there is no spreading signal used in ROS. Mere words will probably
not be enough, and there is probably only ONE chance to succeed, so you
need to be successful the first time. If you decide to only change the
description and nothing further, I sincerely hope I am wrong, and I
could well be. But, that is your decision, not mine.
If you need to protect your invention, then just fully document and
witness it, or do whatever is necessary in your country and others, and
be free to do whatever is required to win this battle.
Good luck!

Hi, KH6.
I only i am going to describe in a technicals article how run the
mode. If FCC want the code they will have to buy it me, that is obvious.

Jose,
"
You will have to disclose the algorithm that determines the spreading
on ROS (independent of the data), or bandwidth expansion, if that is
actually used. You will have to convince technical people that will
show your new description to our FCC that your original description
was wrong and prove it by revealing your code. I think this is the
only way to get the FCC opinion reversed. You now have a difficult
task before you, but I wish you success, as ROS is a really fun mode.

So what's the consensus, is ROS legal in the US or not?
