OK, to warm things up, I proffer the following: Ham radio is essential to the emergency communications network of the planet. When all else fails, hams and the American Red Cross can always get business done. At 5.7 GHz, the distance record is 3,982 km. At 903 MHz the distance record is 4,064 km. They bounce signals off the moon and launch their own satellites.
Ham emergency communications networks are tested each day. Much of our progress in microwave propagation and antenna work has been done by hams. They were here first and will be here last. Pardon the image but we are the ones farting in their phone booth. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "WISPA General List" <wireless@wispa.org> Sent: Monday, August 04, 2008 2:16 PM Subject: Re: [WISPA] Court Injunction > Jerry > > You may get an initial injunction but as a Part 15 user you don't have > much in the line of rights as far as federal law is concerned unless you > can show "willful" interference from he ham. > >>From a business point of view anything is possible in court > > Unfortunately amateur radio becomes pretty moot on high freqs (30 Mhz and > up).
