IMNSHO malicious interference, interference that prevents or 
interrupts a QSO on a frequency from any source is ILLEGAL by the 
existing rules. The fact that this rule is not being enforced should 
generate information to the FCC  on these interferences and requests 
to the same agency to clean it up. If I were operating on a frequency 
and one of these stations climbed on MY frequency (yes, I own it 
while operating on it legally) a report would go to the FCC the same 
day with time, frequency, and any identifying information on the 
interfering station. The squeaky wheel concept.


Again in MO, any station operating unattended and generating RF 
interfering signals should NEVER be allowed on Amateur 
frequencies.  If any persons/organizations wishes to operate in this 
fashion they should apply for licenses and frequency assignments that 
allow this type of operation. It certainly is more commercial than hobby.

You caught me, Demetre. I did rent an F-16 last weekend and got all the way
to Winlink Planetary Headquarters before realizing that the HARMs Hertz gave
me were tuned to 7.105 GHz instead of 7.105 MHz as requested. So I buzzed
the tower and flew home to beat the commuter congestion at Hanscom.

What's your grid square?

Listen to mineIt IDs in CW at the end of an unsucessful connect attempt 
and at the end of a completed connect... The rules allow for ID via Pactor

That is because they never do.  The SCS TNCs can be set to ID in CW, but 
in practice no one ever does.

Dave, you said earlier that you were running Winlink Classic, not Winlink 2000. 
 That would make your station a BBS instead of a PMBO, wouldn't it?

Dave (the other one) was commenting about PMBOs.  Maybe the WL2K code is 
different?

Either in P1 or CW.

Now if I'm in a KB2KB QSO it will not I will force the SCS 
modem to do it. But under computer control it will.

It's in use right now. and I will let you know what it does.
Nice really nice - some lid with a PSK signal is tuning up 
and down the band to make sure he get's us.

P1 ID when the link was dropped.
