Like another subject...I install Mac OS X on PC's ( there a whole community that does this)..Apple does not like this..BUT people do it anyway... As long as there are rules, people will try to circumvent them..No matter what it pertains to...

Yes thats fine in all but I dont see the "point" of why hams complain about "10m freebanders" when most of the time AM is used and USB and FM are most common on 10m. So how does this inconvenience legal operators so that all this negative feedback is necessary?

well, just tune around on 10 and listen, you might want to start on 28.305 and listen to the azzhole bootleggers on AM with their echo boxes and stupid roger beeps.
then tune a little LOWER into the CW subband and there they are again, azzhole bootleggers on AM:thumbdown:

And that's the crux of the problem, years of ZERO enforcement and looking the other way by the FCC has created a mentality of "anything goes" and "it's my God given right to do any d@mn thing I please, if you don't like it, tough". It's always the law abiding and those who choose to play by the rules because it's the right thing to do that get dumped on, from both sides.
With all due respect, Moleculo, the courts don't always follow the written law. They spend a fair amount of time reading between the lines, finding intent that was never there, playing to the winds of political expediency, inventing and writing law that the politicians won't touch and their newest fancy, making rulings based on foreign laws as to how they would like to mold this country and they do so without electoral repercussions. So, while I could waste several hours trying to understand the legalese (I made it to page 5 of the first attachment), I'll refrain as I have better things to do with my time. And, no, those radios still don't pass my smell test as being intended for the amateur radio market despite what any self important judge has to say. :laugh:
I think you need to better understand the difference between frequencies and modes of operation. An AM signal on 28.105 will certainly interfere with ANY other signal on the same frequency regardless of what mode the other signal is.
Well how is it that I dont hear AM folks on my radio while I am on SSB if y'all say it "causes interferance", Not even static...
