WHERE'S THE DIPOLE??

THIS IS..........

THIS IS..........

WHETHER OR NOT, THERE'S WEATHER.

JUST A REMINDER......

If you are in contact on a frequency and decide to change to another one, remember to sign with your station ID before leaving. Just to say "O.K., I'll meet you there" isn't legal. Even though it seems like all one contact, it really isn't. Your contact ends when you finish on the first frequency and a new contact begins on the new frequency. This is why you have to sign off with your call letters before QSYing.

PLEASE NOTE

"Recent FCC Enforcement Actions" section below. Three are actions taken for the long going 3.910 mhz. problem. Also operating under the influence of alcohol and/or medications is mentioned. There are several more in September and October.
Yes, Laura Smith is doing her job. Read and heed!
Also three (3) August entries regarding call sign issues.


Plain English

The Commission requires that repeaters be under the supervision of a control operator and not only expects, but requires, such control operators and licensees to be responsible for the proper operation of the repeater system. Control operators may take whatever steps are appropriate to ensure compliance with the repeater rules, including limiting the repeater use to certain users, converting the repeater to a closed repeater or taking it off the air entirely.
