I see in the WISPA Code of Ethics this line:
e) Use proper diligence to ensure that all materials on their networks
are restricted in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and the
tenets of reasonable precaution.
If this needs to be worded differently then maybe this would suffice? I
do not know how many times we can state specifically that WISPA does not
support breaking laws and that while we do wish to see some changes to
some laws we support following the laws. I am getting a bit tired of
being told by many here that we support breaking the laws when we DO
NOT. Part of the WISPA Code of Ethics states:
ARTICLE II
We will conduct ourselves in such a manner as to bring credit to our
industry and enhance its reputation.
With so many people coming on here saying over and over that WISPA is
trying to support breaking the laws we are not following this code. We
are doing damage to our industry when we state these things and it is
not helping the effort. If our Code of Ethics needs some work then say
so but stop calling us criminals on a public list server. I am tiring of
it and I am sure I am not alone.

As only a list member, wireless operator and entrepreneur, I support and
encorage your request. WISPA, should publicly support issues, especially
those that are law. This specific position should not be something that
requires debate.
I hope this request will open a dialog of democratic, representative,
self-governing action of WISPA in general. WISPA taking a public position
would make paid membership more attractive to myself, and many others I
associate with.

I appreciate what several WISPA folks are doing to try to get more
latitude
in equipment/antenna matching, and as a full "Principal" WISPA member, I
would like to ask the WISPA board to publish a position paper on legal
operation and guidelines for WISPs to use in order to meet the current
rules. It needs to be done now.
Actually showing we are paying more than lip service to the current
regulations and officially Supporting legal operation may go a long way
towards building better credibility with the FCC AS well as with the rest
of
the wireless industry.
Is WISPA up to the challege of setting the precedent.
