[VHFcontesting] where we need the security

[Ray J]

Laughable.. the ARRL is nothing more than a big amateur radio club, you 
think they can do anything against the likes of billionaire companies 
like Sprint, AT&T, or others, if they want some of our frequency 
allocations that we hardly use.

  the arrl has the FCC's ear in a very small capacity.. the president 
already said that every home need broadband access and seems everyone 
needs a super fancy cellphone that needs major airwave bandwidth..

the only thing the government will really care about is keeping the 
bands that we currently use for real emergency communications. 80 
meters, 40 meters, 20 meters and 2 meters.

433,890–940mhz, 2.4ghz, 3.3–3.6GHz 5.7ghz, 10.5ghz, 24.07ghz
and more are all ism or part 15 device bands.. they are there for 
consumer/medical electronics to use.  they are not going anywhere.. it 
just so happens they let hams use some of the frequency's there too.
