[amsat-bb] Ham Radio are permitter on Carnival Cruises

[Glen Zook]

Except the fact that all the Carnival ships are of Bahamian registry and that, under international regulations, one must have a Bahamas reciprocal license to operate aboard the ship.  Such a license is available but does cost $25.00.

I just read the complete list of prohibited and confiscated items.  Under EXCEPTIONS I found the following:
  
  - Ham Radios/Amateur Radio Equipment: Permitted to be used on board.
Looks like we do not even need to ask permission.  Terrific!!!!!
