[KYHAM] HB9 ??? Is this the same???

[Ron Dodson]

His intent may have been blackberries and cell phones, but it covers
everything the way it is written.  As KY4SP pointed out ANY commercial
radio is affected as well as anything else not mentioned in the
exemptions.

In this respect N4AOF is 100% correct.  Sometimes what they mean is not
what hits the paper.

Gentlemen, 

If this is the same bill that was brought up before under
"Paul Marcotte?  

Please rest assured that I have been working with him on
this bill shoulder to shoulder, we have come to an agreement
that he will add the exemption to this bill but he again 
assured me that this bill is ONLY for blackberries and cell
phones.  He understands the need for Amateur radio in the 
events of emergencies and other uses in which we operate.
Again We have been working together on this bill and I have
his word.  I have been keeping silent, because too many irons
in the pot and you can get the soup done.  

I have been busy taking care of this matter, aside from personal 
business because I myself understand Our need to serve and to 
be able to use our equipment at all times, I have discussed
this with Mr. Marcotte and explained in great detail the need
to exempt Us from the bill.  Not even my close friends knew 
that I was working with Mr.Marcotte concerning this issue.

But he gave me his word.  W8NSV
