Hi Dave, Thanks. From here you come over as a thoughtful person and you seem to be following where this is going.
I am not happy that I can not use ROS modem. This is a fact. The way the ruling came over via the ARRL is mot correct ( IMHO ) I have been trying to discuss this here and at other places and get being attacked by a particular individual who indicated at several occasions that he does not fall under the jurisdiction of the FCC or any law in the US ( He has to do with the Postal Office in the UK ) He is also VERY happy about that fact and others. ( Perhaps deported out of US in the past? ) I really do not care whether he is happy or not. I have been following over the last week or so, US calls that are showing up at the HAMSPOTS web site. In that process I have come to the conclusion that some of those calls are ( I should say WERE of amateurs that have passed on, but the calls have nor been removed for the FCC raster ) I found 2 or 3 cases of that type. Others of that collection are held by people of,lets say advanced age. ( in their ninety's ) I am not yoking! So something is going on with these calls. I am told now how my call and others showed up as plotters. Fine Now like to learn how US calls show up there, as transmitting ROS. Can they artificially be injected or not? Are those calls being used in real ROS transmissions? How is it that those calls have the US State indicated while non US calls have not the country or what have you indicated. Why do I want to know this? Well I like to know whether the use of ROS modem in on the increase among US amateurs. Are these people aware of the legal ROS status or not. These answers interest me. I hope Dave, you engage in this project ( or conversation ) 73 Rein W6SZ -----Original Message----- >From: DaveNF2G <[email protected]> >Sent: Jul 9, 2010 11:41 AM >To: [email protected] >Subject: [digitalradio] Re: ROS are sending data from your PC > >> extremely wicked; "nefarious schemes"; "a villainous plot"; "a villainous >> band of thieves" > >LOL.
