I'm not the only person who has had a problem with him...TWO).If you feel that you can cause me a black eye in whihc to stop or slow down or cease my responses to him or you you have other thing coming.There are a multitude of methods a smart person can devise in which to extend their *>opinions<* and veiwpoints about certain things and CW is one of them.The debate on CW is not dead...never has been and never will be;the no-code arrangement is in my humble opinion is a cop-out!!! PERIOD!!! and you as a long time cw operator should know better.THREE)( the coded response I sent to Mr.Wade was something I tend to do when I get falsly accused of the "bootlegging" of someone else's call sign.On the proviso you get him to back off and offer up an apology then I can certainly back off aas well...until then...I will watch and wait and reply when and or if I see same.I have offered mine...now then...it's your turn.Fido is not the only means to tell you what I think,and there is no way possible that you can have me stop voicing my "OPINION", especially when I am preparing to back it with fact!... Balls in your court Jeff...do try to think before re-acting...a good operator acts and anticipates...a bad one reacts and behaves badly...am I getting thru to you?I do appreciate your efforts to work this out but having me black listed in response to my veiwpoint is not the way to go.... .-.-.-.- #### BT UNCLAS... --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: Tesla's Tower 5 BBS (1:346/49) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 135 AMATEUR RADIO Ref: F3U00001 Date: 03/22/98 From: LUIS LOEFF Time: 07:28pm \/To: MARTIN SIMONSOHN (Read 2 times) Subj: CB Radio LL> This is not the proper eco for CB.

NPRM Docket WT 98-20, ''To Facilitate the Development and Use of the Universal Licensing System in the Wireless Telecommunications Services,'' seeks comments on proposals to replace Form 610 with FCC Form 605, to permit automatic reciprocal licensing of foreign hams wishing to operate in the US; to privatize the issuance of club station licenses; and to require applicants and licensees to supply a taxpayer identification number (TIN) and to file electronically. The FCC also plans to consolidate the application procedures for all Wireless Telecommunications Services into a single set of rules. All of these proposals are part of the FCC's efforts to implement the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau's Universal Licensing System (ULS). The new Form 605 would apply for Amateur Radio and other services ''not presently required to submit extensive technical data to receive a license.'' The Wireless Telecommunications Bureau is trying to drastically cut down the number of forms for the various services it administers, and to include all of its services under the ULS. The FCC last November began initial collection of licensee data to populate the ULS. Using the ULS, applicants and licensees will be able to file, modify, and renew electronically. Ultimately, the FCC intends to require all applicants, as appropriate, to file all applications and notifications electronically. The FCC says it's tentatively concluded that there is ''little or no need to continue issuing the reciprocal permit'' (FCC Form 610-AL) for alien amateur licensees because the license from any foreign country with which the US has a reciprocal agreement would ''stand as the proof that the foreign operator is qualified for the reciprocal operating authority. Reciprocal operation under the new regime would be ''by rule,'' which means no special action is necessary on the applicant's part, and the elimination of Form 610-A. For club station licenses, the FCC proposes to accept the services of VEC-like organizations as volunteer club station call sign administrators. Prospective organizations would have to complete a pilot autogrant batch filing project before being authorized as call sign administrators. Under the ULS, applicants or licensees would have to supply a TIN, usually a Social Security number, or ''its functional equivalent.'' The FCC says this is ''consistent with the requirements of the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996.'' To allay fears of misuse of TINs, the FCC says the ULS system would be designed so that TINs will not be available to the public and ''only a small number of Commission employees would have access to TIN information in conjunction with their work.'' The FCC says a Privacy Act submission would be published in the Federal Register ''to obtain the requisite public and Congressional comment and Office of Management and Budget approval prior to implementation of the ULS system.'' A text version of the entire rulemaking proposal is at http://www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Wireless/Notices/1998/fcc98025.txt (or see the link from the FCC home page). The proposal was released March 20. Comments are due to the FCC 30 days after publication in The Federal Register. Reference WT Docket 98-20. The FCC will not accept e-mail comments on Docket WT 98-20.
