Bill,
I totally agree but you would be surprised on how many amateur
manufacturers are involved in this. Thus, I sent this in which may
interest some. Really, any amateur manufacturer deals with the FCC on a
daily basis. Every piece of equipment needing their certifications, etc.
This also has the effect of Uncle Sam wanting these manufacturers to
supply military or government equipment which can keep a company afloat.
I imagine this webinar will be about supplying transmitters and
amplifiers to the terrorist task forces and state law enforcement. Right
now, anyone can get involved in this with a good profit potential for a
small business. Amateurs have an upper hand, knowing what will work and
what will not. On this mailer, most who post often have an upper hand on
amplifier technology. If you don't mind dealing with Uncle Sam, this
could be a money making opportunity for anyone here.
