I think there has even been an official ruling that these incidental sounds, that come along for the ride with legal communication, won't get you a notice from the FCC. Now transmitting voice in the CW bands is a different story. For starts, it's not incidental to legal communication. 73 Bill AE6JV On 1/1/21 at 1:22 PM, [email protected] (Rick Bates, NK7I) wrote: >Defined in the simplest of terms, any sound transmitted other >than for the purposes of communication (voice, tones for >digital) is illegal. > >This includes background music in the same room as the >microphone (though generally ignored as part of the >environment, in the US; same as telephone 'hold' music in an >autopatch; traffic noise etc.) and certainly includes the >'musical' sounds from most OS (they offer no communication). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Frantz |The nice thing about standards| Periwinkle (408)348-7900 |is there are so many to choose| 150 Rivermead Rd #235 www.pwpconsult.com |from. - Andrew Tanenbaum | Peterborough, NH 03458 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
