I always wondered how folks on a Caribbean cruise kept track of their
reciprocal licenses. Leaving Florida the fcc license is good. Then you might
hit international waters where the license needs to go with the ships
registry, historically Liberia or Panamanian. Then the question is keeping
track
In order to avoid that problem, and because the cruise is more than just
an opportunity to ham, I just did all my hamming while at sea in
international waters with my Bermuda reciprocal license (ship registry).
From a satellite operating perspective, there were only a few times a day
to do
... the web page should also suggest ...
So someone researches all the cruise lines, and creates this Web site.
John Doe posts a story on how he was able to obtain permission to use ham gear
on board - despite the ham gear prohibited policy.
But Mark Jones can NOT get his equipment aboard on
