The FCC is caught in the middle on things like this and the
response will be to investigate both sides. Mr.
Hollinsworth will look for the preponderance of evidence
before he communicates with anyone.
I would suggest that those of us in 5 land show up on 3.870
at about 4 PM CDT and have the recorder going. There is
absolutely no reason for people to behave as those idiots
were doing last night. I would also refrain from being
combative but do be firm in your positions. Entice them
into stating their call sign and, if possible, what
equipment they are using. This group reminds me of the one
that is on 3.878 and those on 3.892. They are there with
high power for only one reason, to cause interference to the
AM groups that meet there. If we can catch them with their
pants down, it would be a service to all hamdom.
Unfortunately I am going to be out of town for an extended
period so will not be able to join you until I return.
3.870 is a perfect frequency for those who meet on 3.890 in
the afternoon to utilize until about 7 PM if possible. One
thing for sure is you will never convince the offenders they
are doing anything wrong, but we should try. If you get
their calls, try emailing them a nice sounding note telling
them how they are wrong for the first attempt and keep a
copy for your records..

The one guy was saying that since Riley is old that he
loves the
Amers and going to stand behind us and not the SSB
community...Ya

SSBers... How's about 7PM and we just hold it from then

Several of us got a chance to meet Riley at Frank,
KB3AHE's house last year
when he 'dropped in' for the AMer's post Timonium party.
Those boys are in
for a rude awakening. Riley is not old, (at least by my 46
year old
standards), and if memory serves me, he is also a lawyer.
He did state that
he wanted us, (HAMS) to police our own ranks, but in event
there is
malicious interference, to "roll tape" with date and
times. Also if you can
get the offending station to say his call sign over the
air, that would be a
big plus. But, let me add, he also stated that its a two
way street. So it
always pays to be on your best behavior.
Happy Easter to all.
