The illegal act is when you intentionally destroy property or cause harm
by operating your equipment.
Knowingly doing it, is way different than negligently doing it. If I just
fly on a frequency, there is no intent to cause damage (negligence maybe,
but not criminal).

Sure you can. If I am flying on a frequency, I have no duty, legal or

Man, look at the technology our computer radios have, and they are
so stupid about stomping all over each others frequencies. I know
the technology is available to keep this from happening. I for one
would pay for it even if it meant buying a new system.
Well, you could at least stack the
I think we should all have a unique ID in our tx and a way to set
the ID in the rx with microswitches or programming. The only way to
escape all the newbies and throw away RTF's is to have this coded
system on a separate freq. band, and priced in the league for the
guys flying expensive
I'm gonna cut this thread short, I was really just sympathizing with Tom
loosing his second model to the same reason in such a short period of
time. Main point, like he even cares what I think too.
I should have never mentioned and frequency control issues on RCSE, that
will never get solved

Dont get your feathers ruffled. All I said was that just because you
choose to fly overpriced, pre-build, moulded ARFS does not give you any
frequency advantage. Yes I would pay for your overpriced mouldy if:
1. I shot it down
2. you were on the frequency board when I started to fly.

Or, true digital radios with a signature at some point (just hope you
don't need fast input after an unqualified signal).

Your network is using 802.11b -- WiFi in today's parlance (its what Apple
uses in their AirPort products). Its not going to work too well to control a
model since the range

I believe that hams the government are the only authorized users of the
