I've been sitting back watching this debate/holy war for a day or so now and decided to throw my $.02 in....

I'd bet that the vast majority of 'bad operators' are only 'bad' due to lack of certification.

Most do not run over power limits. Most do not operate outside the UL bands.

If you want to help reduce over-powered or out of band operation, I'm with you.

But, if it turns into a witch hunt for those who, other than certification, operate within the part 15 rules, count me out. Too many 'rules for the sake of rules' already.

This reminds me of the 'professional installer' debate from about 4-5 years ago. Much ado about nothing.

PS Every FCC enforcement official I have met has said the same basic thing.... If your power is legal, and you are operating in the UL bands, we have better things to do than come check to see if you have the right stickers on your equipment.

This is not to say they can't. It is to say this is the way things work in the real world.
