Every time there is a contest there are hundreds if not thousands of operators exceeding tbe 1500 watt limit and yet there is no enforcement action taking place. There must not be any power restrictions.

Everyday there is crap happening on a couple select 20m freqs. There must not be any rules against jamming or profanity.

To simply say that it happens without enforcement action therefore it is legal is false and wishful thinking. The FCC could care less how hams interfere with hams despote there being rules on the books. They prefer to let us "self police" without giving us the teeth to do so.

This is why I wish old threads would be automatically locked after a couple months of inactivity. Someone always comes out of the woodwork, digs it up and stirs up a hornets nest.^^ ab v c^^
