A naive comment from a non-US citizen . Consider the following scenario :

- You are granted a Part 5 license for the 135.7 - 137.8 band.
- You transmit a beacon with your callsign, maybe using an Ashlock TX 
loop :-)
- Some guy in Northern UK, enemy of loops, receives your beacon.
- That same guy a few minutes later starts his own beacon, using his 
gorgeous vertical,
   which has as a part of its message also the callsign of the US beacon 
(no rules prevent him to do so).
- You receive that beacon and so you know that you have been received 
across the pond.

Would this be considered as a violation of Part 5 restriction to 
communicate with
non Part 5 members ?  I think not, at least formally.
