All of these jammers live near other hams, and are known for what they
are doing. Not reporting them is like sanctioning the practices. It
doesn't take much to put the heat on them, but you have to stand up and
blow the whistle. We have enforcement now, but you have to let it be
known who they are. - John Owens (N7SEJ)
