Topband: Strange propagation

> The ethics of the whole thing has already been settled by the ARRL so
ethics don't have to be looked at.

Actually the ARRL didn't do squat about ethics. They left the "ethics" up to
the operator. You are confusing "rules" with "ethics". There is a difference
between what is permitted and what is moral/ethical. Adultery is not a crime
in most industrialized countries. It is not a crime in 29 of the US states.
It is "legal" -- but ask your spouse whether they think it is cheating.
