Stuart, you commented on the Fed Gov giving up on Ham ops.
Truth of the matter is that my cell phone, my pc and numerous other electronic devices at my disposal have way more power and usefulness than a 40 year old military radio has.
You mentioned RAC and the amateurs as being self governing.
What is the penalty for those who chose to operate and not have appropriate licensing? I for one know of many who opt for this, call them pirate radio if you will. Basically common folk sick of government BS and interference.
