[RFI] Solar Panel RFI Awareness At Dayton

[Dave (NK7Z)]

I am quite happy to have the competent staff of the ARRL handle any, and 
all, of my RFI issues, now and in the future.  It gives me, and you the 
best chance of actually making a difference in this mess.

Having the ARRL in the middle gives control of how cases are triaged, 
presented, and worked, to a single group that is actually willing to 
work with all involved, (and has a history of this), to attempt a 
unified solution, which is far more effective than a flood of complaints 
to a web link the FCC puts up.  If the FCC trusts the ARRL to deal with 
this sort of thing, (and it appears they do), then we are fools to not 
use that venue.

Want the link to disappear?  Flood it with anything for period of time 
and see how long it stays active.

BTW, looking at the link you provided, there is no provision for an 
amateur to complain specifically about RFI to his/her station, (among 
the many other radio services mentioned), save a three sentence entry 
area, in which you can outline both your issue, and and suggest to the 
FCC what to do about it.  Their words not mine...  Their requested 
sentence count, not mine...

There are however links for complaints about interference, TO, (not 
FROM, but TO), CB, FRS, and GMRS, but NOT amateur radio...  This sort of 
thing is very telling about where we stand in regards to reporting.

The FCC seems happy to allow the ARRL the ability to take reports, 
triage reports, clean up and insure correct documentation for reports, 
then take these reports from the ARRL.

This is a force multiplier, it allows the FCC to trust the reports they 
get, (which to be honest), is a far better set of circumstances than a 
torch carrying rabble reporting RFI via a link which only allows three 
sentences, for both the report, and solution.

73, and thanks,
Dave (NK7Z)
