AAAArrrrrghhhhh !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't hink I can stand it any more and will just have to unsubscribe from this group. I originally joined it as being the author of the Data column in RSGB's RadCom, felt I ought to keep in touch with the people who actually use the datamodes and was hoping for a decent set of technical-type postings on the way datamode usage was moving amongst amateurs. But close to 1000 postings on the legality or otherwise of using a bog-standard SSB bandwidth single tone hopped frequency diversity system is just too much. If your FCC is anything like Ofcom, they'd just rather amateurs got on with their life and bothered them as slittle as possible, at least until a real issue arises. Its not as if you have the death penalty over there. (Actually, yes you do don't you, but presumably not for exceeding the regulated bandwidth on the amateur bands) "It is far, far easier to beg forgiveness that it is to ask Permission" - Solon - the lawmaker of Athens, 437 BCE Andy www.g4jnt.com
