FCC Gets Serious About 11 Meter Enforcement

[KC2UGV]

He was probably causing a lot of rfi and the FCC got complaints. The funny part is that he could have avoided this by heeding the warnings that were sent to him.A person with half a brain would have at the very least decided to lay low for a while or clean up his act a bit. But he kept right on going with impunity and disregard. Now he'll have to pay the price for his arrogance.

Shockingly, this guy wasn't. He actually was running a pretty clean station, just really high power. I think he built a 2KW amplifier which would make most hams drool. He was also a pretty friendly guy.

Again, assuming this is the guy I think.

Ah well, even with the cleanest station it is possible some neighbors getting RFI complain, the Feces shows uop and figures he's running far more power than he should but he continues to operate.

He should get his ham ticket, then he could run his amps legally. One of my neighbors complained to the FCC that I was coming through some cheap Chinese crap consumer electronics of his.I was running at most 100 - 300 watts carrier amplitude modulated (close to legal PEP) and although he complained to the Feces as far as the Feces was concerned I was a legally licences station operating within all legal limits. They sent him a book on RFI proofing consumer electronics and sent me a copy of the same book. I offered to wrk on the issue with the neighbor but then my day to day operations became sporadic and we never got together on it. Had I been operating CB I would have been up the crick without a paddle.

BTW... In my CB Daze when I was a Monster Station and running well in excess of what I should have been running the Feces was nowhere to be seen. Nor did I ever get an RFI complaint... That was during the Reaganian times.
