In a nutshell, I am saying that automatic or semi-automatic stations should be capable of determining frequency use before transmitting. Whether you can decode it or not is irrelevant. If you were operating phone and heard a language you could not understand, would the frequency be "busy", or do you need to decode it first? Bill, W6WRT ------------------------ Yahoo!
