Wasn't saying pull a pistol, u silly sillies who twist things .. .. THE WISER FOLKS ON HERE KNEW THAT ... BUT .... YA HADDA GO THERE! ----just underscoring that there are still a few constitutional rights we Americans have .. .. .. so far. I was trying to say "go do whatcha do".. so many folks trying to "protect" things these days. aaarrrggghhh...And .. yes .. if you go to a LEGALLY protected area, it surely is best to get the properly documented permission in advance. No doubt. But, to go to the local Interstate rest area and set up your 6M beam and "shoot some skip" (the wanna be cops will know what that means) .,. Or .. just go out to an area to operate for a rare grid, it is plumb stupid to think you must have somewonderful one's permission.. that was what I got out of the discussion. Legally restricted area? YOU BET .. get the permission... but, to go out to Clam Beach ( our turf ) and BEG permission to set up a beam and say howdy to the folks who can hear ya? NO WAY ..
Ham radio "rocks" (got that from the grandsons) .. and I don't want to see wanna be cops taking over the decisions of where physical locations from which one can transmit and learn more about propagation on the ham bands.
Enuf. .. .. Fight for Right .. 73, Mark AA6DX
