- Conference Rules for SCANRADIO Conference
- Moderator, Ken Storm
-
- These rules are quite simple:
-
- (1) PURPOSE - This area was created to help join together those
- individuals in Zone 1 who wish to exchange information, regarding
- scanner receivers, capable of receiving public frequencies open to
- all citizens of the United States of America.
-
- (2) CONTENT - Discussions must be on-topic, that is, they should
- pertain to scanning receivers capable of receiving radio voice
- communications in the bands generally known as, Low Band, Aircraft,
- Amateur, Marine, High Band, Ultra-High Band, and any other
- frequencies above 26 MHz, which are generally receivable on a
- standard, commercially available scanner receiver.
-
- (3) RESTRICTIONS - As is the norm in the scanner listeners world,
- the information heard on the frequencies, can in some cases be very
- sensitive. It is best therefore, to keep all discussions within the
- parameters of the law. Discussions of those laws governing scanners
- and those which address the passing-on of information heard, are
- allowed. However, any discussions of a unlawful nature, are not
- allowed. This includes unlawful equipment, etc.
-
- (4) FLAMES - No FLAMES please. This is a discussion echo, not a
- place to throw personal thoughts of unrest at another user. Be
- supportive, correcting a misstatement in a gentle, knowledgeable
- manner, instead of blasting away at another user.
-
- (5) NO COMMERCIAL MESSAGES - It is suggested that any commercial
- product being supported by a user, be described in such a fashion,
- so as not to give the receiver of such message, the idea that the
- sender of the message is trying to sell the product. This section
- is waived, when the item is a used product and the personal property
- of the sender. That is, scanner for sale is allowed, provided it is
- personal property and not part of a commercial endeavor. The burden
- of supporting a commercial business, in this echo area, costs as they
- are, is discouraged. It is however permitted to give advice about a
- product, provided, the user giving the advice has first-hand knowledge
- about the product, and takes no monetary gain from the advice.
- REMEMBER: This is a hobby echo.
-
- (6) ZONE GATING - This echo may be gated to other nets, provided the
- original message content is not changed. Permission to gate the echo,
- must be approved by the Moderator of this echo, prior to gating. The
- request may be sent via electronic means, to the moderator at one of
- the addresses shown below.
-
- (7) RULE FILE - This text file is available from my system, STEAMER
- ONE, by file request as SCNRADIO.RUL, CM, 2400Baud, 8N1, XA, 23 hours
- a day, except Zone Mail Hour. Should be HST/DS soon.

- General Synopsis: Keep it on topic, keep it legal, keep it fun.
