My 2009 New Years Resolution was to stop talking on the CB, just so I could be a ARRL Official Observer to the FCC. Had to clean my act up, so I could send out a OOAN Card to a New Ham who was running Roger Beep and Echo on 10 Meters. It worked! He took his Echo and Roger beep back to CB.
Also found out a lot about the OO Program like the open 3 book test that any body could pass. The number one rule for a OO is to NOT get personally involved. If he does, the OO can be SUED and the ARRL and the FCC do not care because they will NOT even furnish the stamps to send the OOAN cards must less a Lawyer. They will just let the NARK get SUED. YES, I believe OO are NARKS and that is why I am NO longer a OO but I also found out the direct phone number to turn anyone directly into the FCC, bypass the ARRL. OOs must send three OOAN cards before the station ever gets turned into the FCC. So the OO Program is pretty much a JOKE that is used to SCARE. I only have my OO Certificate posted to my QRZ page to let other NARKS know I am wise to their game. So now instead of getting 3 OOAN Cards, I just get emails from belly acking OLD Men who try to Chide me. My Delete button is worn out.

I understand now. Instead of being an @$$-wipe on 11M you decided to be one on 10M.

esle but me tired olf this?Its getting old,lets talk about the dweab in R.I Don 512...hehe
Wait a minute - you sent an OOAN card to a ham for running echo and roger beep on 10 meters - which isn't even illegal??? It might be annoying, but it's not illegal. There are even use cases where a tone at the end of transmission is useful (have you ever worked ISS or listened to the Space Shuttle?) Heck, even my W2IHY gear comes with echo controls!
So to make sure I have this straight: You feel that it's OK to send an OOAN card to someone who is doing something that might be poor operating practice but not illegal, yet it's OK for you to have lousy operating practices on 10m (by berating others) and don't like it when you get called out in public?
lets talk about Don,512 in R.I. He still owes me a radio freq counter,and D104...^^ ab v c^^^^ ab v c^^^^ ab v c^^^^ ab v c^^
You probably will never see those items or your money. Want to know why ? He is a CB'er.
