My impression is that Bonnie has an inflexible agenda: that Pactor II and III will continue to operate in auto or semi-auto modes. She claimed that the new regs permitted this, even as the FCC was publishing the errata adjustments. You will recall the "Pactor ... is OK" thread, which frankly I found somewhat jarring. Nothing wrong with Pactor; used to operate it myself, keyboard-to-keyboard. de Roger W6VZV
