the remarks were directed at truckdrivers markk9 imparticular
i dont care where you were born. allthough its appearent you seem to have some agenda with drivers instead of aggrevatiating the situation why dont you develop a highquality cb radio. i would like the 4 watts to get as far as another truck using 30/100. no ugly needle displays only digital read outs. i want it to look like and be compact like the magnum 257. get workin on it. build it they will come.

What I'm talking about is not a SPECTRUM ANALYZER.
You said:
"Again, take ONStar and multiply it by a factor of 6 to 10."
The p code is transmitted over a much wider bandwidth than the c/a code explains Langley: "So you can jam the narrower c/a code without jamming the wider signal." I can assure you RadioRay the FCC does not have any better receiver than ONStar. Like I have said many times - The FCC is not going to spend a lot of manpower chasing down single trucker. I do see them going after more and more after the sources of these illegal radio and the people that do the mods. Last point to another trucker's comment. I am a retired trucker. I hope it meets your complaint. ![]() kc0iv

Well not exactly victimless crime talking on 10 meters and not being licensed. The FCC is always looking for bandwidth to reallocate. The licenses lets them keep track of how many Hams are licensed for each spectrum as well interest in future Hams that are upgrading. They even made it easy for you to get licensed by dropping the code requirement. Its one of those use it or lose it type things. So if it isn't used or is used improperly it will be targeted by other government agency's or business interests then the rules of the game will become much more serious.
Personally myself...I could care less what you do in your truck with your CB. But when you bust into my DX....that's a different story. I earned the right to be legal and operate in that bandwidth by being licensed. If you haven't earned the same privilege, you don't belong there. As for the FCC doesn't have the money to prosecute.......they have a lot of money and you pay it.... they use lawyers that work for the government. Ray.... you are wasting energy and oxygen on folks that just want to yank your chain. No matter what you say they will throw the same garbage at you.

Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see. what gets me is you have the nerve to come to a drivers forum and cast stones like you are Jesus Christ (you know like you are so perfect) you really missed my point You are trying to use this as scare tactics, and I don't think its working. You prob. think the government is still hiding UFOs in new Mexico...lol I really cant believe they have let this thread go on this long!! This is what the fuss is all about and you misinterpreted it. He was a base station agitator jamming the airwaves, not 2 drivers having a conversation, you idiot!! This is what the story said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

![]() Second problem with your idea is knowing what a legal ham call is and what freq. you can use. Get either one wrong and you stand-out like a sore thumb. kc0iv

I really cant believe they have let this thread go on this long!!
Ray, as much as it pains me to type this, it is time to put the 28 MHz debacle to rest. No one is listening and if it was a real important matter for the FCC something would have been done years ago when the "illegal" radios came on the market. Yet, nothing has happened. The radios are still for sale in truck stops all over the country and can be found on EBay!!! The threat of FCC action is MOOT.... The organization is still pissed over Janet Jackson's stunt at a lame super bowl half time show!!! It will only be a matter of time when the Sinful Radio will become a thing of the past and another group will get their GONADS in an uproar over something like "Pirate" GPS systems... The dude in Florida is but a mere speck of justice and as someone mentioned he was a HOUSEBOUND operator... It'll be much more difficult to corral "RENEGADE" mobile operators!!! What it gets down to is... To Each Their Own.. It'll never change!!!
