Buddy, Why is the Amateur service more a free e-mail system to over-the-air licensed operators any more than it is a free phone system for those who use phone? I don't see anything in the 3rd party agreements about mode of operation. Steve, k4cjx You didnt answer my question. 73

On 20 meters automated data stations are given from 14.089 to 14.099 and 14.101 to 14.112 MHz depending on the signals actual spectrum used by the signal. Yup, just what we need. Good job UK, ruin the RTTY freqs. Where will it all end? WB4M
