Below is the second paragraph in ARLB016 that I received from the ARRL via
e-mail yesterday. It sounds like the FCC is somehow sanctioning those pesky
CW fishnet beacons on 160m!
In addition, the FCC has raised the secondary Amateur Service allocation
at 1900 to 2000 kHz to primary, while
Don,
I too reflect Jeff's thoughts and appreciation.
Thank you.

The FCC has agreed that the buoys need licensing they don't have, but rather
that requiring compliance
they have simply declared that the Part 80 (Marine) license now covers this
Part 90 activity. This is completely
unprecedented, as far as I know.

The statement about the radio buoys is vague.
By open sea' do they mean out of the 12 mile territorial zone or 200 mile
exclusive economic zone (EEZ)?
This would only apply to only American fisherman because the FCC has no
jurisdiction over foreign fisherman outside of our EEZ.
Does this mean
I have only heard the fishnet beacons in the upper half of the band. They
would probably disappear quickly if we moved cw to the high end and phone
to the low end.

I often hear them in the CW segment -- mostly 1810 to 1840.
