[RTTY] I just have to ask

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

Ahh so I am a multi op station and I will be operating on .01 of every band
all the time.  I guess they are mine now. ???!!!!

Heck there is a big Multi op station and their sideband has been out of the
legal band all day long.  So I guess we can even claim frequencies we are
not allowed to transmit on too.  

Are there any other frequencies in use all the time that I need to be aware
of that are also not in the FCC rules.

Thankfully it does not work that way.  

But hey lots of people are willing to give up their liberties so why not
give away your frequencies too.

REPLY:

I'll be glad to. It's the section that says thou shalt not transmit on a
frequency that is already in use, and of course, the beacon frequencies are
in use 24/7. Even if you can't hear the beacon it is still there, and not
hearing it gives you the same amount of information as if you did. 

You're welcome. :-)
