A bill was signed into law passed by Congress allowing state and local
governments, as well as the FCC, to enforce laws against illegal CB
operation, including illegal amps and RF interference. Amateur radio
operators are exempt from this new law. Concern that many amateurs will
still run the risk of being hauled into court on the basis of these local
regulations by well-meaning law-enforcement officials who don't know the
difference between CB and amateur radios. While such cases will no doubt be
thrown out of court, there is still the danger that many hams will have to
incur legal expenses to protect themselves.. Needless to say a short order
drill with the locals might be in order !! "An ounce of prevention is
better than a pound of cure".. Dave - WD4RCO
