[Premium-Rx] FCC Radio Gear

[John Miles]

Well, to be fair, why in the world should my taxes be paying for premium Rxs
when the Icoms will do the job?  The truth (which might get me banned from
the list <g>) is that those WJ receivers are basically $500 hammers in that
application.  They are no better at driving the nails the FCC has to drive
than an IC-R75.

It is not bad news when the Feds can save OUR money by running commodity
equipment.

  Dear All

  I agree completely. The FCC is a shadow of its former self, a subject that
both angers and saddens me greatly. Their offices in DC are essentially a
mausoleum as well.
  Deregulation and the FCC did not work--big business loves it, the American
people don't get it. The demise of the VOA and the USIA is another pathetic
situation, but I won't go there either.
