Hams, some companies say they are kosher and for others they're trief
(Yiddish for not kosher). At least I have a memo with Holland's
America ham radio policy in hand and I will secure the Captain's
permission before operating.<br>
<br>
I found a few items missing in the webpage mentioned by Drew.<br>
a. no mention of requesting/receiving the ship's Captain permission
to operate, as we all should.<br>
b. That ship is of Panamanian registry and to operate you need an
IARP license. I don't think that this would have made a difference to
those security officers but the Captain's permission probably would
have changed the tunes around a bit.<br>

Working around stuff like that might get you this situation, which was
on Carnival Cruise and involved Ham Radio hardware.. :)

<br>
I did a Google for +"HAM Radio" +"Carnival Cruise"

I have been invited on a 7 day Mexican Riveria cruise, probably onboard
the MS Carnival Pride next month. I though this might be a cool
opportunity to do some HT satellite work, but found on the last line of
items BANNED on the crusie ship - Any Ham Radio Transmitters.

Bummer.

I did notice that they RENT Motorola radios to passengers who want
them. Hmmm...
