00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:15.439
The Ham Radio two point zero Audio
podcast rip. Thank you for downloading and

2
00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:19.239
listening to this podcast. So basically
what I do is I take all the

3
00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:24.679
audio clips out of my videos and
upload them to spreaker, and then from

4
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:30.199
there they're spread out to iTunes and
SoundCloud and now Amazon Audible as well.

5
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:34.719
But I want to welcome you and
thank you for joining the audio section of

6
00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:39.679
this series on Ham Radio. I
hope you enjoy it, and I would

7
00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:45.560
appreciate you leaving us a comment or
a review on whatever podcast service you're listening

8
00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:53.359
from. Thank you in seventy three, I hope you enjoy it. The

9
00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:58.039
FCC has threatened to find a Ham
radio operator. This is in twenty twenty

10
00:00:58.039 --> 00:01:02.320
three. This is today. The
article was posted yesterday. So for all

11
00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:04.120
of you that say the FCC doesn't
do anything, they're never gonna come after

12
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:07.760
you. They're blah blah, they're
just waiting around and you're never gonna get

13
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:11.680
in trouble. I heard that a
lot from GMRS folks. Oh nobody cares.

14
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:14.439
Just do what you want to do, use your UV five R on

15
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:17.120
GMRS. Blah blah blah blah,
just do what you want to do.

16
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:21.280
Well, guess what the FCC is
finding or threatening to find a guy for

17
00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:29.040
interfering with a net. Check this
out. So in California, there's this

18
00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:34.439
net called a WARFA net. It's
Western Amateur Radio Friendship Association. Okay,

19
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:38.879
and again I found this article yesterday. Now this video will post a few

20
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:42.000
days from now, but at the
time of this recording, the article was

21
00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:47.760
posted yesterday. Says the California man
faces possible twenty four thousand dollars fine for

22
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:52.439
allegedly playing recordings during an amateur radio
net and not providing his call sign.

23
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:56.000
Now you know these jack wagons,
okay, if you've ever listened to a

24
00:01:56.120 --> 00:02:00.400
net on two meters or seventy centimeters
or even an HF net sometimes, okay,

25
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:06.680
you know these idiots that key up
and play music or just try to

26
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:10.159
cause interference for no freaking reason at
all. I suggest to you, I

27
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:14.919
submit to you my theory on the
reason that people do this. Basically,

28
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:19.840
they are sixty five years old,
living in their sisters or their their wife's

29
00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:23.879
basement, and they've run out of
things to do. That's a theory I

30
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.759
have. I don't have any proof
for that. I've just that's just a

31
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:29.879
theory that I'm going to toss out
there, and I'd like to know what

32
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:36.199
you think about that theory. In
the comments blow Philip Baudette Baudette Boudette,

33
00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:40.319
however, you say that has issued
has been issued a notice of apparent liability.

34
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:46.000
There's a lot of ambiguous terminology in
this article apparent liability by the FCC

35
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:53.800
for apparent quote apparently willfully and repeatedly
interfering with radio communications on the Western Amateur

36
00:02:53.840 --> 00:03:00.039
Radio Frequency Association while it is attempting
to hold a regular schedule NET and for

37
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:05.439
failing to provide his identification on image
radio frequencies. Well, yeah, yeah,

38
00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:09.240
okay, you're gonna key up and
interfere with a with an ongoing net.

39
00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:12.719
You're not gonna You're not gonna,
I D I mean, why would

40
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:15.520
you? I D say, Hey, this is casey five HLBB, here's

41
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:17.960
some music while you're keyed up during
your net click. You know, no,

42
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:21.520
no, nobody, This guy didn't
have the guts to do that.

43
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:24.199
People who interfere with the net really, do you have nothing in life better

44
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:28.280
to do? I mean, I
know a lot of a lot of my

45
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:30.759
friends in him radio say why I
hate nets? I don't like nets at

46
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:35.159
all okay, but none of my
friends go and and willfully try to interfere

47
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:37.680
with the net and play music over
it. I've heard k m Ordi say

48
00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:39.840
several times, I don't like checking
in the nets. I don't like nets.

49
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:43.800
I just bypass him when I Well, that's what you should do.

50
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:46.199
You should bypass a net. When
you hear a net, just move on.

51
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:49.000
There's a lot of other radio spectrum
you could be on right now.

52
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:53.400
Okay, So there's a difference between
not liking a net and not caring about

53
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:57.400
nets and trying to interfere with nets. And seriously, you guys interfere with

54
00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:00.439
nets, what's wrong with you?
Seriously? You know, takes of meds

55
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:02.159
or something I don't know, crying
out loud. So he's not gonna give

56
00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:08.240
his call sign, but this article
gives his call sign. November six Peanut

57
00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:11.039
Jelly Butter. I thought that said
PB and J, but it don't.

58
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:16.240
November six, Papa Juliet Bravo Bodett
is licensee in six PJB of Bernie,

59
00:04:16.240 --> 00:04:20.560
California. A net is on an
on air meeting of local amateur radio operators.

60
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:24.519
So this radio world that they're just
describing what a net is okay,

61
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:29.720
Okay. The FCC said it received
numerous complaints about Bodett. It says it's

62
00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:34.639
agent went to Burnie three times in
late Bernie the city three times in late

63
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:38.560
twenty twenty two, and in each
case he heard bought it playing recordings on

64
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:41.680
three dot nine O eight. Okay. So this wasn't even on two meters.

65
00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:43.360
When I first read this, I
thought, oh, this is a

66
00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:46.399
two meter net, because there's there's
jack wagons and idiots to play music on

67
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:49.160
two meter nets that I personally heard. So this was on eighty meters on

68
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:53.199
three dot nine O eight that caused
the interference on the wharf a net while

69
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:56.160
failing to provide his own call sign. Again, he's too chicken to provide

70
00:04:56.199 --> 00:05:00.199
his own call sign when playing music
over a net. It said he at

71
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:04.480
thirty days to pay the proposed fine
twenty four thousand dollars twenty four thousand dollars

72
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:09.199
thirty days to pay the proposed fine
or to respond with reasons why it should

73
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:13.199
be reduced or canceled. I'd like
to see that. I'd like to see

74
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:15.839
his claim on why it should be
reduced or canceled. This video is sponsored

00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:59.680
So thank you to Ham Radio Prep
for sponsoring this video. His reasons

86
00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:04.399
be one nets pissed me off and
I have more right to the frequency than

87
00:06:04.439 --> 00:06:08.399
everybody else. Or two they didn't
invite me to the net. I didn't

88
00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:12.279
get a personal invitation and I feel
offended and now I need to express my

89
00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:16.240
offense on the air. Or three
they have canceled the prices right and I

90
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:20.079
no longer have anything to do during
this time of day in the afternoon anymore.

91
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:25.160
So I've chosen to do this.
There's three reasons that I figured that

92
00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:28.199
maybe he could give. I don't
think they're going to get him a reduced

93
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:30.879
fine, but you know, go
for it, you know, mister Bodette,

94
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:33.399
if you're watching this video, please
feel free to use any of those

95
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:40.120
reasons. I'm not copyrighting them.
The FEC citation further states that we caution

96
00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:45.920
Bodette that future violations of this kind
may result in significantly higher forfeitures and a

97
00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:50.920
revocation of his amateur radio license.
Well, congrats, congrats. I think

98
00:06:50.959 --> 00:06:54.319
that is awesome. You know what, I really do. I think that

99
00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:56.920
is awesome. We get a lot
of complaints, a lot of times saying

100
00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:59.839
the FEC doesn't do anything, they
don't care, they're not going to come

101
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:01.800
after you, they're not going to
find you. And let's face it,

102
00:07:01.959 --> 00:07:05.720
there's probably no way they could catch
everybody that's doing this kind of crap.

103
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:10.839
But at least they're trying. Okay, at least it's something. Now.

104
00:07:11.040 --> 00:07:15.800
I am not a big proponent of
government agencies coming in knocking on your door

105
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:17.759
and telling us what we can and
can't do. But I'm even less of

106
00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:25.920
a proponent of idiots like this guy
willfully interfering with amateur with planned amateur radioactivities

107
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:29.560
on a frequency that they have a
complete right to be on. These guys,

108
00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:33.160
these wharfa guys, have one right
to hold a net on that frequency

109
00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:36.720
at the timeframe they're doing it.
This question comes up a lot about parks

110
00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:40.639
on the air. It's like when
you're out calling scupoda and some guy comes

111
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:43.560
by and says, Hey, we're
about to start a net on this frequency,

112
00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:46.120
would you mind moving. We've had
this discussion before. In fact,

113
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.680
maybe I'll make a separate video about
this specifically. But they don't have a

114
00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:53.000
right to that frequency if you were
there first, I don't care if they

115
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:55.560
come by and say, we've been
running a net on this frequency seven days

116
00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:57.920
a week, three two hundred and
sixty five days a year for the last

117
00:07:57.959 --> 00:08:01.120
twenty five years. You need to
move, You don't. You don't need

118
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:05.000
to move now. As a polite
and courteous ham radio operator, I think

119
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:07.879
you probably we should move. If
you're on parks on the area, you've

120
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:11.800
been there for an hour and they're
saying they're about to start a net.

121
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:13.839
My theory is if they're nice about
it, I'll move. I'll be like,

122
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:16.920
yeah, sure, man, no
problem at all. Thanks, thanks

123
00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:20.879
for the thanks for the heads up. I'll que us why. But my

124
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:24.199
point in saying all that they don't
own that frequency anymore than I own that

125
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:26.720
frequency, anymore than you own that
frequency. These guys running the net don't

126
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:31.600
own the frequency. But mister Baudette
and his pissed off live he doesn't own

127
00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:35.639
the frequency either. Everyone has the
same rights to the frequency. Okay,

128
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:41.080
And if there's someone that's legitimately using
the frequency like these Warfa net guys,

129
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:45.639
and someone else like you or I
comes by and interferes with them willfully and

130
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:50.240
intentionally, then we are in the
wrong because they have as much right to

131
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:52.440
the frequency as I do, as
you do, or as anybody else does.

132
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:56.279
Move frequencies, do something else.
There's plenty of frequencies out there for

133
00:08:56.399 --> 00:09:01.000
us to use. Don't be a
jackwagon even if you're not yet. Well,

134
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.120
they're never gonna catch me. They're
never gonna catch well, Okay,

135
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:07.960
maybe they won't. I still think
you're a complete waste of oxygen for interfering

136
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:13.200
with a licensed amateur radio operator.
Or net or other entity on the air

137
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:18.240
because you think your time is more
valuable and more important than everybody else's is
