The Hawaii County Council web pages and the Hawaii Tribune-Herald report
that at the Hawaii County PSPRC committee meeting that Bill 66, the
mobile cell phone bill has been amended to exempt amateur radio, with an
effective date of January 1, 2010, and with a committee recommendation
to pass Hawaii County Council upon its first reading which is scheduled
to be on June 2 in Hilo.
