This is good for a LOT of things. I occasionally hear people complain that IRLP, Echolink, & eQSO systems are not legal because they are not controllable. If the operator of a IRLP/Echolink/eQSO system has his system set up for control over the internet that is legal, according to the FCC statement in 97.213a. I have a repeater located about 2000 miles away from me which I monitor and control thru an internet connection. Several times people have accused me of not being legal because I can not control my station. OBVIOUSLY, they are wrong. Yahoo!
