I hear that on average most CBers usually call it quits about 500 to 600 watts of power,PEP. The next group specializes in 8 pill to 16 pill amps with the occassional driver. Then there is the competition group, where reputations of the operator, amp or alternator builders depend on how many trophies are hard-won at the latest keydowns or shoot-outs. What are you guys running as far as power? how many of you out there suffer from this disease and for how long?? Is there a cure for this disease?? Has anyone out there escaped this Dibillatating malady? It's kinda like either quitting cigarettes or cutting down. I found my cure to be (guess what).... money, moolah, dead presidents, scratch, mail, grits, you know what mean??? If there are any other cures out there besides RF, feel free to share The info with the forum, "COPPER RULES" |

Nope, i read alot of the info that the fcc has on there web site..
LOL i tell ya some of it is mind boggling, i read about one case were the fcc went to court and the judge ordered them not to act until the fcc answered some constitunial question, so the fcc left the court and had a swat team raid a house along with u.s marshalls from the attorney generals offics and one cia agent..
the home owner had fully automatic weapons pressed agains there head...
hey i'll give you the link to read it your self...But this particlar article is not from the fcc, it is from a local news paper in florida somewere...

Doug Brewer ??? Now as Paul Harvy would say here the rest of that story! Sorry weakeststation but I know him...He was well know here in tampabay... and he had lots of warning and had made it plain he would not allow the fcc to carry out any raid SO they showed up with force! This was not your joe six pack radio guy he lost a extra class ham license and a general radio telephone too. They took no chances and he was treated as any fellon would have been..... remember he was the one who made it plain .... i ll stop you.... The law is very clear you do not have the right to stop the fcc ...well you do .... he he he.... yea make them get a warrent not smart! |

I agree on the hills for sure lol..... but as the story stated the fcc was told to stop until it answered the questons that the court had,and the fcc decided to do there own thing, after the federal judge ruled on it.... But putting a fully automatic weapon to some ones head because they are or are not operating the rado the way fcc sees fit, i think goes a little far.... But i agree, he knew he was burnt and he should of headed for those hills while he had a chance... |

I work at a jail for the sheriff office and if the person being arested is deemed to be a danger like Doug was they will go in with FORCE now to thoes outside it looks like over kill BUT here in tampa bay we had 3 killed in one day BECAUSE they took pitty on a guy who had killed his boy in a gun misshap...... the guy was a vilont fellon who hated cops and killed 3 of them before he shot himself. SO unless you have been there ( im not a cop) it is a judgement call. Doug thumbed his nose at them and they took him down THEY TOOK EVERYTHING i have no pitty on him at all ..... NOTE this man could have taken THEM out but the show of force resulted in no stupid actions and no one hurt. |

Your still missing the point Bruce, dangerous or not, A FEDERAL JUDGE ORDERED THE F.C.C TO RESPOND TO CONSTITUTIONAL QUESTIONS, BEFORE THEY COULD ACT.... My point Bruce is, were it is against the law to spit on the sidewalk, should the police put the guns to there head while writeing them a ticket because they are deeemed to be dangerous..
AFTER A FEDERAL JUDGES RULEING THE F.C.C VIOLATED THIS PERSONS RIGHTS, I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF GUY HE IS, BUT WHEN THE GOVERNMENT WILLINGLY VIOLATES ARE RIGHTS REGUARDLESS OF WHO'S RIGHTS, WE ALL ARE IN TROUBLE... His rights was violated because of the judges ruleing... Like i was saying i don't know the guy, but if they had obtained the PROPER warrents, i wouldn't have a problem with the whole thing, but since the GOVERNMENT broke the law to shut this guy down because he was not operating to their rules, i do not agree with it what so ever, don't agree because of the judges ruleing... Like i was saying if it was done legal, i wouldn't have no problems with them busting in and shoveing the gun in the guys face, they gotta do that with the warrents for there safety.. But like i was saying after a federal judge ruled on it, and the GOVERNMENT decided to do there own thing anyways, WE ALL ARE IN TROUBLE.. IT SHOWS THAT THE GOVERNMENT DON'T RESPECT THE LAW OR PEOPLES RIGHTS... If the guy breaks the law, im all for having him busted, but don't break his constituniol rights to do it.. There are legal ways to arrest people...
I don't know this guy, but i am VERY concerned there guy when the government is going to do what it wants when it wants.....
Im just trying to watch out for our rights.. Dure process is part of them..

It is policy for most law enforcement during a raid to have automatic weapons and at the ready. Gun to the head I would think not COVER POSITION yes. You are in COVER till given recover command. Nothing wrong with it as far as everyone has discribed but with anything it subject to review. |

Bruce, according to what i am reading with that link is that the guy, had a chance to respond and he did not go to the hearing therfore the case pending against him proceeded....
And by what i am reading is after this insident were they raided his house, he later set up another 2 unliscened radio station..
I also notice that this date is after the orginal raid was conducted, were the federal judge ordered them not to proceed until the fcc answered a few questions...
By what i see in this link is this person has received his due process, in 2001.. But his rights were still violated a few years early when the fcc acted against him after the judges ruleig, but if between the ruling and the raid if the judge said go ahead, im all for that..
But this document surly shows that in 2001 his rights were not violated in anyway, and im all for that 100%, the only time im not for it is when (YOU,ME ANYBODY) our rights are violated WHITHOUT DUE process... Then i have a major problem with it,AS WE ALL SHOULD TO PROTECT ALL OF OUR RIGHTS... But this 2001 notice is ok with me because as many can see in this document, he had his due process...
Hey EXLAX, Who might you be refering to?? You got me wondering...
Crafter, it is very NESSCARY to cover during a raid, the public servents doesn't have any idea if someone is going to jump out and shoot them.. The need to follow the procedures for there safety MUST be followed....
As long as people get there due process, im for it, but when due process is violated then i gotta a problem..
Its been fun guys, talk to you later...
Before i go, have you guys heard yet that the F.C.C has filed a petition to get your info when you buy any kind of radio equipment?? Just wondering, thats a good story as well.. |

Weakeststation, if I understand it correctly, someone filed a petition for the FCC to begin getting all radio operators information when they buy a radio. I think it was not the FCC's doing or idea, but petitioned for them to do that.
I don't foresee that being realistic as of now. If radio, be it ham or CB, had been used as an act of terror against the US, then it might have some pull and get some attention. This was just one radio operators letter trying to request the FCC to do this (if I understand it correctly). That's all.
Same reason I don't see the FCC aggresively hunting down illegal CB'rs. Lack of man power and the fact it doesn't really affect the vast majority of the American public negatively. Nobody gets hurt, doesn't kill, injury, maim or even threaten anyone. Now if those that run power and expanded channels would just stay away from the ham bands, heck even the ham operators would probably care less and leave the CB'rs alone.
Just my thoughts though. Doesn't mean they're right

Weakeststation-
My first post refers to Patriot1. I was not certain of who he was until Karatebutcher made it clearer for me.
My second post refers to:
IV. "Conclusions Under the Law", #21 ..."cavalier disregard".
Both individuals don't/didn't care about the law and what actions they both do/did. Basically, my point is that there are indviduals that give the hobby of CB/Ham radio and in Patriot1's case, (religion) a bad rap OR they have a continued, blatant disregard for regulations, in so much that they just have to keep on doing it without a fleeting thought of how it effects others. The thread is entitled "The More Power Syndrome", I would call it a disease. Would you want to follow the ways of Jesus after hearing someone babble about it with 2500W all day long, making no real sense?
Not a sermon, just a thought, heheheehehehe

I've rune about 100 watts PEP tops, usually less since most my talking is at night and everyone's local.
I guess I've escaped the malady for now at least. Amplifiers don't seem that appealing to me. I always believed that CB should allow a nice 20 or so watt carrier with 80 watts PEP on AM 80 watts PEP sideband. That's good power, nice local saturation without being overly obturisive yet, enough to have some DX fun as well.
I know some folks who have the big equipment, seems there's always a technical issue with it. |

In my humble opinion, I believe that FCC fines are definite cure for this disease. I also believe that because of man power shortages, the FCC picks his targets carefully to gain the maximum intimidation factor for other "would be" or probable violaters within ear shot, or the area where the bust occurred. If it's a hi- profile case such as interfering with airport tower to jumbo jet communications, then that's all the more "Bang for the Buck", since the media's job is to inflate or exaggerate a story for maximum tv viewership or tabloid readership. In the FCC's eyes, if you violate a mandate, or protocol of operator rules and guidelines, the hapless CB/Ham public will feel the full scope ot their governmental and jurisdictional powers. In the name of a fun hobby, you are now suspect. like it or not, if the Fcc did have the manpower, all it would take is a handful of "Snitches", to inform then the dates, times, and locales, of all shoot-outs, keydowns, or jamboree's that will occur every month nationwide from state to state. Then it would be, "A Shark Feeding Frenzy". All illegal equipment would be seized, and fines levied for exceeding legal power limits by kilowatts. But, as Alsworld stated in a prior post, and he's right, CB does not affect the vast american public in a negative way, nor do they have the manpower (Unless you got caught) to enforce their dictates. Period. |

RE Wolfie....
I agree that the problem for serious violations is to hit them in the wallet. BUT, the FCC has this nasty habbit of changing their minds when a fine is imposed.
Rather than collect the 10 grand fine in cash, home, all personal property and all future earnings, they let the guy off simply because he is poor. They do not make an object lesson out of him.
Now what kind of lesson is that to the body of users. Just say you are poor and you get off almost scott free? |

The truckers are only there to get info and to ocasionally find someone to talk to due to boredom. They are a goup of people that are only trying to make a living like most everyone else.. These clowns that get on and cause trouble clearly have issues. Most of them are either not working, (read, they choose NOT to work and live off of wellfare!)dropped out of high school at an early age, are on sort of public assistance, have a alcohol, drug, or mental problem and to try to make themselves feel better they take out their frustrations on everyone else!! |

I know that ham radio operators love to add feathers to their caps, or notches on their belts, when it comes to reporting or "snitching" on CB operators that stray into 10 meters, or any other meters for that matter. They succeed by hiding in the bushes and taping your self incriminating conversations for uncle charlie, and that's a fact. But, I'm bewildered about this hi-powered Mr. Cadillac man, AKA, The cb operator everyone loves to hate. I reinterate. Fcc manpower shortage??? Or could it be, like what all law enforcement institutions have, what is called a "Code of Silence". |

What are you saying? If cadillac man is on CB recking havic with CB'ers what intrest would he be to the hams ...... zero nada .... As for tapeing is IS allowed as a cb user you are not covered by sec. 605 SO anything you say can be used against you. NOW is he strays on to 10 meters THEN he will bet noticed.... and should be.
I dont know of any hams who go looking for cb abusers ..... much less time to go snitch on them and if i would TAKE the time someone has forced me to do so So stating "They succeed by hiding in the bushes and taping your self incriminating conversations for uncle charlie, and that's a fact. " is the same as saying ALL cbers are illegal or stupid. I have been aproched by local CB users fed up with the junk but they had the goods on the person and turned it over to the FCC THEMSELVES. |

In california, Daly city, and San Francisco to be exact, I have neighbors who are hams who thrive on scuttling, or pinning CBer's coax for running power, expressing viewpoints, or just for transmitting(Existing). Fortunately when the hams come down to 11 meters to ignite the cb/ham wars, by hazing, hunting, or harassing the local cb operators, I go to another channel, or turn the ol uniden off. I'm also glad that I run a well-tuned "Mobile" and not a "Base". I'm not saying "All CBer's are illegal or stupid".Out here, we are the prey, and they are the predators, as they(the hams)say it's all in fun (HELLO). Either way, Cadillac Man must have 9 lives, angellic guardian angels, or a voodoo priest, because his days of ratchet jawing or advertising his "wares" on the airwaves doesn't appear to be "Numbered" or limited to me. "More Power To Those That Get Away"!! |

If you have knolege that they are doing this send it to ..... rholling@fcc.gov he is in charge of inforcement for ham/cb radio and has stated EXACTLY what you are saying is what he would like to stop. ZERO tolerance for illeagal ham use of CB is his goal and you will if you send good documentation get a responce. ALSO GET HIS CALL LETTERS ! Here in tampabay we have a problem with the 146.64 repeater and jammers ..... most are cb'ers but not all its only a matter of time till the FCC comes here and cleans house ....... as for being a ham ..... well lots of people who know me would aggree with you on that. |
