Lets make sure the ham bands are used properly. If you find a bootlegger operating in a ham band (e.g. types running pseudo-CB on 10 meters), please do all us hams a favor - report it to either the ARRL's Intruder Watch and/or the FCC!!! We've had to fight for the spectrum we have and its our responsibility to make sure it is used properly! One reason the FCC is favoribly disposed toward us hams is that we police ourselves - we don't need these lids spoiling it for everyone and breaking the law as well (my breaking the law comment applies both to the illegal operation as well as the illegal purposes, e.g. drugs, that the operation is for). Thanx to Bob Purnass for bringing this item to our attentions. 73's Bill Mitchell, WB2IAU (ihnp4!lcuxc!wjm)
