Hello All,<br>
<br>
How about we ALL set out aprs rigs to ETI-1 or 2 for a tactical call
sign for a few days? Leave our call sign in the comment line. Sure
would confuse the people wanting to track ETI. <br>
<br>
Or one person sends bogus locations on the net that would show the
station on a joy ride to say Las Vegas or Hawaii?<br>
<br>
I will put together an email with the story of how things worked out
when we found a bootlegger here in the Detroit area. Long story.
Personal contact turned out to be the wrong thing to do. Next time, I
will document and turn it over to the FCC!!! He was a non ham with a
ham friend in Ohio who helped him install the system....... Young
kids, early 20's.<br>

it was a test to see if those could tell if my positioning was legal.
Since the D700 does not ID in CW and I wasn't using voice on 144.390
every 10 minutes in the commute as someone else suggested, and it
doesn't do this: "<font size="2">An ID was sent out as required, but

Otherwise when I use my callsign (or tactical with my callsign in the
beacon), I'm a law abiding amateur!</font></span></div>
