No grief here. I would like to know who turned him in? Amateur Rado Operators no Doubt. But to each his own. I doubt he was causing anyone any problems unless he runs a very dirty and sloppy radio Than good riddance. People have been running those freq's for decades. Yes let the ham vs...

The only dumb question is the one not asked.

Yes it would be nice BUT who would pay for all the burial and not to mention all the added expense of maint from floods and earth quakes. I wonder how much it would have cost if New Orleans would have had buried elec lines? For each solution their is a neg side to it Mostly money, and property...

I think Happer-Hammer has got a lot of commom sense. Great idea it would stop all the nonsense.

King Cobra Keep up the good fight. In today's world if the police do not want you to listen just scramble the signal (old world ) or go digital on the system(new world) and most listners will be out of luck you could also go to a astro digital trunking system for real security around my home...

Shane I hope It all worked out well for you.

Bravo very well said. What I gather from reading all of this is the fcc can't do it's own mandated job. I wonder if anyone in congress knows that the fcc has employed a lobby group to do a part of it's job. Cyclops1970 to answer some of your questions My lic is over 40 years old. Total...
