For which they insisted on it was illegal: “A mamarla” The case you submitted via the FCC has been resolved. The resolution details for Case ID HD0000001311878 are below. If you have any questions contact us at (877) 480-3201 Thank You! Summary* : Request for clarification of ROS Digital Mode Description* : Some days ago, Timothy J. Lilley got in touch with the FCC to clarify the legality of the digital mode that I created. This person gave the FCC without my permission and consent an incorrect and incomplete documentation, which is inconsistent with the characteristics of the digital mode. I attach the technical description of ROS written by its developer and an audio file for you to judge the legality of ROS in USA. If it is no longer possible, I take legal action against Timothy J. Lilley. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, Jose Alberto Nieto Ros Telecommunication Engineer Solution Details : Dear Mr. Nieto, As I reported Timothy J. Lilley, the licensee of the station transmitting the emission is responsible for determining that the operation of the station complies with the rules. According to the technical paper and the audio file attached, we conclude that ROS can not be viewed as Spread Spectrum and it would be encompassed within the section 97.309 (RTTY and data emissions codes). FCC Committee will remain outside of any legal action you decide to take. Should you have any further questions, or need additional information, please contact the ULS Customer Support Hotline at (877) 480-3201 (877) 480-3201, selecting option 2.
