   The FCC acts in the alleged California license fraud case.
 Disciplinary action is on its way!  This story and more on
 Newsline report number 894 coming your way right now!

(*****
                 PUNITIVE ACTION IN CAL VE PROBE

   The FCC has begun punitive action in the wake of widespread
 fraud in California's all volunteer amateur radio testing
 program.
   The FCC takes action against 54 amateur radio operators
 connected with alleged license fraud in Southern California.
   The Commission plans to revoke the licenses of three hams and
 is cancelling license upgrades for 51 others.  Ordered to turn in
 their licenses are James B. Williams, AA6TC of Wilmington,
 California, Robert L. Flores, N6WPQ of Santa Monica and his wife,
 Rose Marie Flores, N6WPR.  All three are former Volunteer
 Examiners holding Extra class licenses.
   The Commission says that an exam session the three claim to
 have administered never actually took place.  The Commission
 accuses all three of willfully signing certificates showing that
 people who were not tested had passed elements necessary for
 amateur radio licenses.
   The Commission singles out Rose Marie Flores as being in charge
 of the paperwork for one test session.  Flores is accused of
 getting other VE's to sign certificates of completion for people
 the FCC sez were not examined.
   The Commission issued a show cause order against the three
 September 27th.  They have 30 days to appeal or lose their ham
 licenses.
   FCC is also punishing 51 other hams they received license
 upgrades from Volunteer Examiners suspected of fraud.  In June,
 the Commission gave each amateur a choice:  they could either take
 the test again, or lose their upgrade.
   Only 3 of the 51 appeared for re-testing and all three failed.
 Now, the Commission is revoking the upgrades all 51 hams received
 during exams in 1992 and 93.
   The three amateurs who face losing their licenses are part of a
 larger group.  Nearly three dozen Volunteer Examiners were
 suspended throughout California about a year ago.  There's
 speculation that the Commission's action may be the FCC's way of
 saying, there's more to come.

              ENGINEER ADMITS SABOTAGING COMPETITION

   A Cleveland Ohio radio station engineer has pleaded guilty to
 charges that he cut transmission lines that knocked Howard Stern's
 broadcast off a rival station.
   On September 7th, William Alford pleaded guilty to one felony
 charge of disrupting a public service and one misdemeanor count of
 criminal trespass.
   Alford admitted that last June 10th that he cut cables to a
 satellite feed as shock-jock Howard Stern was broadcasting his
 syndicated show from a Cleveland nightclub.  Stern was in
 Cleveland to promote local station WNCX FM, which carries the
 show.
   Alford worked for WMMS FM at the time of the incident but is
 no longer is employed there.  He could be sentenced to up to two
 years in jail.
   In a prepared statement WMMS said Alford acted on his own.
 A check of the FCC database indicates Alford is not a ham.

(*****
                CABLE TELEVISION SYSTEM SHUT DOWN

   The FCC has partially shut down a cable television system for
 excessive leakage.  It happened in Oklahoma where an engineer
 working out of the Dallas, Texas office discovered that a small
 town cable television system had a signal leak on aeronautical
 frequencies.
   The FCC identifies the cable system as Trans-Western Video of
 Waukomis, Oklahoma.  The FCC says it measured a cable leak of
 1,850 microvolts per meter where the FCC rules permit a maximum
 of 20 microvolts per meter.
   As a result of this leak, and several smaller ones, the system
 was found to violate the cumulative leakage index limit.  This
 called for suspension of operation on all aeronautical frequencies
 to prevent interference with aviation communications.

(*****
                         FAIRNESS R.I.P.

   The FCC's top lawyer has recommended that the agency not
 consider reinstatement of the fairness doctrine.  This is a former
 rule that required TV and radio stations to present both sides of
 a controversial issue.
   According to the trade publication Variety, the recommendation,
 from FCC general counsel William Kennard, is considered a big win
 for broadcasters.  It's believed Kennard made the decision only
 after consultation with Reed Hundt, the FCC's Democratic chairman.
   Kennard's opinion could close the books on attempts to
 resurrect the fairness doctrine, which had been a staple of U.S.
 communications policy until 1987 when then FCC chairman Dennis
 Patrick led a drive to repeal the rule.  Patrick argued that the
 fairness doctrine stifled, rather than promoted the presentation
 of stories with controversial themes.  He also said that the
 explosion in cable TV and other media outlets rendered the rule
 obsolete.
   Since Patrick's FCC nixed the regulation key congressional
 Democrats have fought unsuccessfully to pass a bill making the
 doctrine law and expanding its scope to cover new communications
 technologies.
   But in a memo circulated to Hundt and the four other FCC
 commissioners, Kennard says that the legal arguments against
 codification of the fairness doctrine have not changed since 1987.
 Moreover, he believes that arguments today are even stronger than
 they were seven years ago against bringing the Fairness Doctrine
 back.

                    ARRL TO ASSIST HANDICAPPED

   The says that it ARRL is currently working to develop materials
 for disabled individuals with an interest in Amateur Radio.  It
 notes that it is looking for stories, photographs, recordings of
 experiences of disabled Amateur Radio operators or from
 instructors and rehabilitative personnel who have worked with
 handicapped ham radio students.  It is also looking for practical
 solutions to problems faced by handicapped hams.  This includes
 adaptive devices for radios and computers that could be invaluable
 to a potential ham struggling to earn a ticket or make the ham
 shack as accessible as possible.
   If you have any ideas and would like to help, please contact
 Mary Carcia, N7IAL in care of the ARRL Program for the Disabled,
 225 Main Street, Newington, CT  06111.  Or you can call Mary at

                        NO UNION AT ARRL

   There will not be a Union coming to ARRL headquarters after
 all.  The National Labor Relations Board recently conducted an
 election among League employees on the matter of union
 representation.  There were 65 employees eligible to vote.  Most
 did and unionization was rejected by a wide margin.

                        EXAM DAY MISTAKE

   National Exam Day is October 29th and not October 9th as noted
 in the September issue of the ARRL's QSO Media News.  The league
 says that the October 9th date was nothing more than a
 typographic error.

   In DX, word that KU0J and DK8FD have been active from the
 Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.  Activity has been mainly CW
 on 17, 30 and 40 meters.  Unfortunately this one does not really
 count for anything but fun.  You may remember that the League's DX
 Advisory Committee recently rejected a petition for new DXCC
 country status for the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.  DXAC
 members stated that it did not meet DXCC Criteria Point 1
 operating to government.

                      SPECIAL ITU STATION

   Also, the ARRL reports that special event station 8N3ITU is
 operating from the International Telecommunication Union 14th
 Plenipotentiary Conference.  The station is set up at the
 International Congress Center in Kyoto, Japan, site of the
 conference.  ITU officials attending the conference who are
 licensed amateurs are allowed to operate the station.  Japanese
 amateurs watch over the station and assist visiting amateurs.
   The conference is scheduled to run until October 14.  QSL's may
 be sent via the JARL bureau, or direct with an SASE to 8N3ITU.

                         A FISH STORY

   This story from Australia.  Researchers at the University of
 Sydney say that they have made an interesting discovery that could
 yield major benefits in the areas of solar energy and optics and
 they owe it all to a fish.
   It seems that a group of physicists were arguing at lunchtime
 over what makes a fish so "silvery."  Unable to reach a
 conclusion, they went to a nearby Fish Market, bought the
 shiniest fish they could find, and took it back to the lab.
   A scientific inspection of the fish skin showed that it
 contained "multiple stacks of organic crystals, interleaved by
 layers of watery tissues, arranged in what scientists call the
 Chaos Theory principle.  In other words the cells are arranged in
 an apparently disordered manner, instead of neat arrays.
   The highly efficient natural reflectors are intended to
 confuse predators, but this discovery promises to lead to more
 efficient solar mirrors and other optical and reflective devices.

Subject: FEEDLINE: Looking for mailorder cable places. Any recommendations??

  Looking to get myself some cable. I will be operating on VHF and UHF
so I want to get some real high quality line. I don't think I can afford
Hardline (connector prices are incredible!). I heard that RG214 is pretty
good stuff (better than 9913). I think this runs around 1.50 / foot.
Does any one have the specs for RG214??
Are there any other "high-grade" cables out there in this price range??
I was considering a polytetrafloroethyalene dialectric (teflon) since it
has high heat ratings (up to 250 degress Celsius). comments?

Last Q, any recommended mail order dealers. I see adds for the cable X-perts
in QST, but I don't see to many others. I do want to make sure I'm getting
my best price.

   Thanks in advance

Subject: HF rig turns off the VCR??

Has anyone ever seen anything like this?   My transmitter (on certain
frequencies) causes the VCR to stop playing.

I put together my HF station last weekend.  I have a Kenwood TS-430
running barefoot (100 watts) into an MFJ tuner feeding a roof-mounted
multi-band dipole.

While checking the antenna for SWR on 20 meters (CW transmission),
our VCR stopped.  We restarted the VCR and, sure enough, when I
keyed the transmitter, the VCR stopped again.  It almost seems
like the motor changes speed for a moment, then the picture goes
to "dead channel" snow for a few seconds, then the VCR stops
playing.  Perhaps I'm affecting the tape speed sync???

Strangely, if I tune the transmitter a few hundred KHz away, then
I just get a light snow on the picture.  With the VCR off, the TV
picture (cable) is perfect.  The place that gives the problem seems
to be where the antenna is best tuned (about a 1:1.2 SWR).

The VCR is about a 5 year old RCA middle-of-the-line model.
It is located only a few feet from the transmitter (in
different rooms sharing a common wall).   It would be
difficult to re-locate either transmitter or VCR.  In our
old house, both units operated in relative peace (minor
snow).  While some (including me) might consider causing the
VCR stop to be a feature, not a bug, my daughter disagrees.  ;-)

Any thoughts on things to try?

Thanks,

Subject: HT problem--help!!! Please!!!

Jesse,
I have no experience with this HT, but my guess is if you indeed shorted
something, you probably open circuited (burned out) a diode that may be
in series with the external power jack to prevent the wrong polarity
from being applied to the radio.

Check the schematic to see if such a diode exists.  If it does, that's
where I'd look.  Also, I don't suppose there's actually a fuse in
there somewhere....is there?

If you get a chance, let me know how it turns out.

Joe.

P.S.  With the current state of miniaturization and use of surface mount
devices, be be very careful if you decide to try to fix anything yourself.
It might be worth it to send the thing back to the factory.

I'd be curious to know what the rules (Laws) are: Do you need a licence to
purchase, or simply to operate? (My gut feeling is that you only need a licence
to operate - but I'd love to be proved wrong!) ie, Is Radio Shack required by
law to check whether you have a licence before selling the handitalkie??

This is not any special deal. For the fixed fee of around $5.00 per session
you are absolutely entitled during any one session to take the theory papers
in continuous ascending order, so long as you pass each the previous one and
also, if necessary, take the code tests in decending order until you pass
one of those.

There is no need to grovel or bargain for this privilage or "agree" to
anything.  It's the regular deal we all got.

(With these long lines, perhaps no one can quote me in order to contradict me!)

Of course, the difference between vendors like Tucker and the flea-market
"bargains" extends quite a bit past price. I also consider reconditioning,
recent calibration, warranty and clear title to be a major part of my
purchasing decisions. :-)

Just be sure you post something a few days ahead.  I'm interested in ANY
activity above 50 MHz (except those pesky 2m repeaters).

Start the car? No. Drive the car? Yes.

If you transmit on the thing (the radio, not the car, smarty) without
a license, you are in violation. If you kerchunk a repeater, without
identifying, license or not, you are also in violation. Although that
only applies to license holders, since if you didn't have a license, what's
to identify?
