You're changing your story now. Your previous messages simply said the
software itself was illegal, and when I challenged that your argued the
point and said I was rationalizing.
Just give it up, OK?

By the software being 'illegal' I mean that it has the capability to

software is illegal, having the software is not, however, the mere
fact that it does have the capability to be used as a bot for
automatic, non-attended QSOs should make anyone think twice about
having this software available for download.
Your claiming that I don't know what I'm talking about is a
rationalization in itself.

I can let someone who isn't licensed use my station while I am not
even in the U.S., but neither I nor my station is performing an
illegal act unless I do that.
I can own an amplifier that is capable of putting out 5,000 watts,
but it isn't illegal unless I run it harder than 1,500 watts.
You really don't know what you're talking about, and it has nothing
to do with me rationalizing anything.

The program is designed to make QSOs without someone being there.
Illegal in the US, the person who put the program together could
have removed the code and left the UI. He didn't, and added a 'legal
notice' which is worth the paper it's not printed on.

Automatic is not the same thing as unattended.

What specific FCC regulations permit a single QSO to be auto
sequenced but prohibit auto sequencing of 2 or more QSO?
I had been under the impression that disallowing auto QSO
sequencing was a preference of the developers so, if it is
illegal, I'd appreciate a reference. I can legally allow an
unlicensed operator to make my QSO but I can't allow a supervised
computer to do it?
Before you all jump on me - I have no interest in running an
automatic QSO machine. I'm only interested in the regulatory
aspect of this.
