Please do not take things out of context in order to make your points. If you do not know, just ask. There is nothing to hide. " Really? Quoting from the March 5 bulletin posted by you on Winlink: "IMPORTANT ALL-USER UPDATE, March 5, 2005. The Central Mail Server (CMBO) is being attacked by new virus's from mail address books that contain Winlink.org addresses. These Winlink.org addresses are attempting to put virus's back into the system. In addition, there are approved Internet email addresses, which are also contained in address books of infected computers that are making an attempt to enter the Winlink system. We are catching an average of 1,500 of these attempts daily. NO FUN! Effective Tuesday, March 8, at 00:00 UTC, in order to protect, you, the user, as well as your email recipients, we are going to delete ALL the current entries in the Acceptance list, and start a new list. To make sure your favorite email recipients are contained in the approved acceptance list, be certain to send them an email AFTER 00:00 UTC on March 8 or thereafter. You may use multiple "TO" and "CC" addresses. It is a good way to also insure that you are sending to a live and proper address." Steve, which Winlink lie do you want us to believe? Quoting from the ARLL letter, http://www.arrl.org/arrlletter/04/1029/, included in the Report and Order on Access BPL, ET Docket 04-37, the Commissioners wrote: "We similarly do not find that Amateur Radio frequencies warrant the special protection afforded frequencies reserved for international aeronautical and maritime safety operations," the Commission said. "While we recognize that amateurs may on occasion assist in providing emergency communications," the FCC added. It described typical amateur operations as "routine communications and hobby activities." The FCC view, and that of everyone EXCEPT Winink, is that emergency communications are an "occasional assist in providing emergency communications", and nobody else wants the majority of the frequencies dominated by the likes of Winlink under the guise of it being necessary for our health and welfare... 3.8% of HF ham radio spectrum is already available for Winlink domination by their less-than-1% of US hams, if they insist on doing so, and is more than enough space to devote to emergency communications. Leave the other 96% of the HF spectrum for other PSK31, RTTY contesting, award-chasing, CW, MFSK16, and phone free from constant disruption by unattended Winlink PMBO stations or Winlink client stations that are under the automatic control of Airmail. 73, Skip KH6TY The K3UK DIGITAL MODES SPOTTING CLUSTER AT telnet://208.15.25.196/ Yahoo!
