The normal requirement is that a control operator be present.  If a control 
operator is not available, then the station is not meeting part 97 requirements. 
  Despite so many peoples attempts at asserting restrictions, it is entirely 
possible for a technician to operate an HF station just as it is for a general 
class licensee to operate in the amatuer extra portion of the bands.  At issue 
is whether the appropriate licensed control operator is present.

If improper transmissions occur, the transmitting station is responsible for 
their actions, and the control operator (this is why they need to be close by) 
will need to take appropriate action to stop such transmissions.
