Adding to Skip's remarks, I will point out it is considered almost an indecency among the daily-position-report hams to mention 97.113(a)(5) of the FCC rules, which states: (a) No amateur station shall transmit: ... (5) Communications, on a regular basis, which could reasonably be

Dave right now I dont have the time to plug the holes in your comments. But the bottom line is that they are ham's at see. Would there be a problem if they only used SSB and not data mode?

John, I don't know if your comments are directed to me or are in response to my comments on NTS Digital, but NTSD has nothing to do with hams at sea. If you want more information about NTS Digital operations and practices please check this web site.

In return, it does benefit all the other digital modes which are looking for places to operate, Alan, that's plain stupid. Looking at my ARRL band/mode chart, I see in EVERY HF band the phrase RTTY and Data. Wow...DATAthere's my place to operate. John KB2HSH --- In

Using your same logic below, it could well be determined that hams who partake regularly in 75M evening nets, or even regular QSO, etc, should take their conversations to FCC Part D Citizen's band, or other service , because those communications on a regular basis could be easily

Quite a few seasoned hams still use older forms of software that do not support RSID. Why they chose not to upgrade is beyond me but they have their reasons. I suppose that if all you ever do is RTTY and PSK31, what would be the point in transmitting an RSID? Or upgrading your software? Rick
