He then "grabed" the bug and put it back where the bug really was.

    quote:Originally posted by Directionless:MARTY: Quote: the whole problem with your argument is that the airwaves aren't free, they're public. The difference is that when something belongs to everyone, no one person can say how to use it, so we delegate responsibility under the social contract to agencies that have the job of regulating the use so it will be (at least in theory) fair to all. No Marty indeed they are free unless regulated. In the 802.11b environment are baby monitors, Garage openers, phones, and anything else. In fact, If I invented a wireless birdfeeder that used this unregulated spectrum and put it in my backyard, I would have every legal right to use this Free, unregulated part of the spectrum. If it interferred with your baby monitor or garage door opener, tough, as long as my device was within the overall wattage parameters set forth by the FCC. I have to disagree with you Directionless, about your 2.4 GHz birdfeeder. Your bird feeder is a Part 15 device, and for those of you that haven’t looked at the bottom of your part 15 device, here’s what it says: quote:This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference. (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. (Unless you are a licensed amateur (ham) radio operator, and are operating the birdfeeder as a part 97 device in the 2.4 GHz ham band.) Your bird feeder would be considered a part 15 device and must comply with the two stated conditions above. For those of you that didn’t know, the 2.4 GHz WiFi devices overlap the 2.4 GHz ham band. The FCC has proposed making amateur radio operators primary users at 2400 to 2402 MHz. Meaning that that if some one was interfering with an amateur radio operators use of that band (a WiFi user for instance), that person would have to stop making the interference. Not the amateur radio operator. There is an article on e-Ham.net about it: http://www.eham.net/articles/3809
  16. I started caching on 7/27/02 and I'm up to 21 finds (I went and found 5 more today). September 2 by w8tvi (21 found) W8TVI
