Region 7618 (N08E35) has shown a decrease in activity during the period, but remains bright. Region 7619 (N10W32) has become a spotless plage. Solar activity forecast: solar activity is expected to be low to moderate. The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field is expected to be unsettled during the first two days of the period. Day three will be active due to a favorably located coronal hole. Event probabilities 16 nov-18 nov Class M 50/50/50 Class X 05/05/05 Proton 05/05/05 PCAF Green Geomagnetic activity probabilities 16 nov-18 nov A.

High Latitudes Active 50/60/45 Minor Storm 05/05/15 Major-Severe Storm 05/01/05 HF propagation conditions were normal over all regions. Similar conditions are expected over the next 48 hours. Conditions are expected to deteriorate slightly on 18 November, particularly on transauroral and transpolar paths, due to anticipated enhancements in geophysical activity associated with a well-placed coronal hole.

But note that Gary speaks of the LICENSE situation, NOT the amateur people situation. Heck! If *I* can pass the Novice and Tech tests at the first sitting, without ANY help or classes or anything other than ARRL's "Now You're Talking" book, the test's GOTTA be too easy. (OK guys, you can use the testimonial if you want.) *:-> (with holiday party hat) And, yes, the tests do seem to be on reference - look it up - kinds of material. I'll grant that the FCC wants a licensee to prove in writing that he/she knows what the band limits and other rules, and safety practices are, so the licensee can't say "I didn't know." And that's what the exam should be -- to prove to the license issuer that you know the rules and can use the bandwidth efficiently. Drivers' license tests are the same -- you prove that you know the rules, not that you know how to drive to work or to Walt Dizzy World. One of the big complaints about our education process today is that we spend too much time teaching "look-up-able" facts, and too little time teaching "how to find what you need". At this level, though, perhaps there should be classes in how to USE amateur radio. Now, THAT would be a good class. How about it, local clubs? Do these exist? No license-like test needed, but a snazzy wall-hanging would be a lovely second thing to hang in the new shack.

If there's a big demand for them by novices/ >techs, should higher-class licenses QSY? *do* they QSY? I'm assuming you couldn't copy their calls Doug, so I'm asking this as a retorical question. Are you sure they *weren't* Novices? Some people have a natural talent for high speed Morse, and little interest in other aspects of amateur radio. I've known some Novices who could bat along at really outrageous code speeds, but had no interest, or in some cases professed no ability, to learn the technical material required to upgrade their license class. Thus they were "stuck" in the Novice segments. This so called idiot savant talent is rare, but not so rare that you don't run across it ocasionally, especially with purely mechanical talents such as Morse. On the other hand, if neither of the stations were Novice, or coded Tech, licensees, then the behavior *was* somewhat rude.

I've heard of the fragmentation of HF bands in the US, but cannot quote any of the segments from memory. I do have them listed in one reference book, so I could look them up if needed, but I've no way of easily knowing if it's up to date. I'm a British citizen, living and operating from Britain. Like US amateurs, I was only examined on my own country's licence conditions, and similarly we are each governed only by our own country's rules. There are some big mismatches between band allocations in different regions. Our 40m band is only 7.0 - 7.1 MHz. The US allocation extends higher, but is governed by compulsory band plans, giving little overlap of SSB allocation for some US licence classes with Europe. Our bandplans are voluntary, only. They work reasonably well, and sometimes the freedom to breach them is useful, but we cannot go into some of the US segments on 40 and 80 as they are outside our bands. One amusing consequence is that a lot of space shuttle operation was planned based on the US 2 metre band, and used even over other countries. It meant that they were outside the bandplans of the only countries they were in range of, and sometimes on such congested frequencies that they were not noticed for local traffic. ********************************************************************** I think there is a market for a set of HF band diagrams showing who can operate where, across the world.

Congrats to you both! :-) I passed mine at 14, and my father had one suggestion I'm glad I took; laminate the original license in plastic (preferably have a jiffy-print or like company do it for you) so you'll have it forever. Not only is it a nice keepsake, but it also provides proof of licensing when, at age 38, he wants to join the Old Farts' Club. :-) -- +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Cliff Sharp | clifto@indep1.chi.il.us OR clifto@indep1.uucp | | WA9PDM | Use whichever one works | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------ Date: 19 Nov 93 03:55:52 GMT From: ogicse!emory!news-feed-1.peachnet.edu!umn.edu!csus.edu!netcom.com!henrys@network.ucsd.edu Subject: TEN TEC OMNI V OWNERS!!!

Or is it >permissible in the FCC's eyes but not permissible to the county mounties? The FCC specifically allows use of any means of communications in a true immediate threat to life situation (97.403), but as you noted, local police don't take such a liberal slant on such things. Some departments look at this the same way they would if you went joyriding in one of their cruisers, or used an officer's gun. The ham made a mistake when he "admitted" using the radio illegally, since he didn't. That gave the police, who generally are not knowledgeable about radio law, the excuse to confiscate his radio. He's likely going to have to fight them in court to get it back, and he may lose because he admitted that he thought he was operating illegally and intent is a major part of the law.

I barely passed (not even sure I DID pass) my novice test, in 1960, at 5wpm. But, 9 months later, I took my conditional (anyone remember that one?) at 35wpm and aced it.

Since I was the one who started this thread, I'll take it your refering to me as "..the same types that look offended when....." from your reply above. I don't mind spending my money at RS or any other store when I see something I like. Usually, price doesn't enter the picture if I want something. However, I have been getting RS catalogs "FREE" for something like 20 years now. When I have spent over $15,000 on just computers from them and about half that on parts, scanners etc. over the last ten years I don't expect RS to "cheap out" by trying to charge me $3.00 for a catalog now. So as to your comments about me trying to make a killing at hamfests, well, I don't bother going to these. I don't care for them or some of the "opinionated arses" who like to make stupid comments about people they don't know. 73, Tom WI3P collinst@esvax.dnet.dupont.com or collinst@world.std.com ***** The comments, opinions, belief, sentiment, views & scribblings **** ***** above this signature are mine, and mine alone.
