Here is a response I got from Dan Henderson, N1ND, ARRL Regulatory Information
Manager about the legality of ROS here in the states. My question was very
simple. Is ROS a legal mode under FCC rules and if not, what would it take to
make it so. Here is what Dan had to say.
From:
The only problem is that Mr Henderson is mistaken in one regard. Per Part 97,
spread spectrum is not authorized on 6m or 2m. The rules specifically state
(section 97.305(b)) no SS modulation emission may be transmitted on any
frequency where SS is not specifically authorized.. A review of
license on the line for this software.

Keith,
While ROS is not legal on HF it still is not legal on 6 or 2 meters here in the
states, it is legal on 1.25cm and above. Please see Part
