[RTTY] List of Winlink stations

[Al Kozakiewicz]

Which would seem to contrary to the FCC's definition of a "control operator".   By the Winlink definition, anyone who accesses a repeater is also a control operator and their car or handheld radio is a control point.

John,

Ah, if it were only so in reality.

Winlink interprets the subband restriction as specifically **not** applying to their system.  See paragraph #2 on this page:

http://www.winlink.org/guidelines

They argue that the guy on the boat is actually the control op for the shore station.

Excuse me, but was this NOT the very reason that the "auto" sub band was
created?
If it was then why go there knowing what may happen. It's like going for
a Sunday evening
walk on the I-95 interstate. You don't go looking for a SSB QSO in the
CW portion do you?
But maybe some may.
