Thomas,
I think you are right. History has it's own momentum and that's working to
the benefit of the W1AW operations. And while it may very well be an issue
warranting reconsideration, despite the years that program has been running,
the bulletin operations and their interference are arguably insignificant
compared to the potential posed by 11708 should the worst-case be realized.
The problem is 11708. We have to stay focused on that subject and not get
sidetracked on ancillary problems. After all, the league is focused keenly
on making 11708 a reality.

Subject: [RTTY] ARRL Deliberate Interference
I think that we have ended up with the ARRL deliberate interference sub
thread because someone here on the elist saw an ARRL bulletin transmission
start up and interfere with an ongoing W1AW/x operation. Kind of ironic.
If my memory serves me correctly and it doesn't always, over the many years
a number of ham's have taken on the ARRL concerning their bulletin
transmissions allegedly causing intentional QRM and also being a violation
of Part 97 and complained to the FCC. But the FCC backed the ARRL in every
case.
I think that one of those individuals was K1MAN. He formed an organization
(IARN) to compete with the ARRL and ultimately got in to trouble with the
FCC over his bulletin transmissions causing QRM and being a violation of
Part 97. Another irony.
So I think that complaining about the ARRL again with the FCC whatever the
reason would be waste of time and energy and we should all stay focused on
RM-11708. I suspect that our collective efforts against RM-11708 will
ultimately be successful
