[amsat-bb] Terrible Repeater QRM on AO-92 at 15:40z

[Michael Walker]

So... not to sound like I don't care, I really do.

But, there isn't anything you can do about it unless you capture the person
with video with the mic in their hand.

Here in Toronto, several of us have spent thousands of hours chasing
people.  We even have video of a guy in his living room doing it.  I had
Industry Canada and the RCMP (since it was a Federal Offense) on the street
with us.  They agreed, he was breaking the law.  To which they both said,
so what.  I have other more important cases and this is just a hobby.  If
you catch in interfering with health or safety, call us back.

And, with that. FM, DSTAR and DMR are about dead in Southern Ontario.
 And, there are a lot of hams here.  The population is about 11 million.

The best solution.  Give up on FM and move to a Linear bird.  Invest in it
and you'll love the difference.  For myself and my friends, FM, DSTAR and
DMR are dead.   I do HF and weak signal SSB, CW, etc.  Way more satisfying
than the CB crap we are hearing now.

Ok, off soapbox.  Flame retardant suit is on.
