Hello, I think you may want to research this company a little bit
more. They do not appear to be the type of Clandestine company
interested in marketing CB type amps. They also have I.S.M.
products as well. And they have the only HF capable HT on the
market. As for my placement in this hobby, I am doing just fine
here, Thank You! Just because they don't pursue the U.S. Market
as avidly as Yaecomwood, it doesn't mean they're not legitimate.
Also, other countries have 11 meters as an amateur band, and any
US amp can be modified for 11 meter use. Most illegal CB ops
today use modified amateur equipment anyway. I guess some people
can't understand the concept of the spirit of the law VS the
letter of the law. I guess technically then, My Hercules II is
illegal to use as it was originally purchased in the U.K. as an
export model, and then was brought back into the U.S.A. I am not
advocating illegal CB use! I hate that service. And I am not
advocating Commercially selling this particular amp in the U.S.
without type acceptance. But I see nothing wrong with someone
ordering 1 of these for personal use only. Maybe Part 97 needs to
be modified to include personal use only by a licensed Amateur.
73.
