Glittering Generalities.  
by AI2IA on July 4, 2008 Mail this to a friend!
What the heck is this article? It has nothing specific to say.

There are two ways to handle misbehaving operators: The first is to refuse to engage in radio contact with them (in other words ignore them completely). The second is official enforcement when it gets bad enough and persistent enough to warrant it.

There is also a third way, albeit preventive, and that is to never operate in such a way as to lessen the pleasure of others. This sets an example to be followed or ignored.

It has a lot to say, its about your second point.

"The WIA Board believed that ACMA should not only act, but be seen to act, either criminally or administratively, against particular amateurs in such circumstances."

Let's see, this is about the ACMA acting and seen to be acting as doing what they should have been doing and been seen doing all along concerning particular amateurs in certain circumstances.

Wow! Sounds like glittering generalities to me, if I ever heard any.

Do you suppose that particular amateurs in such circumstances might have become aware of the subject of this conference and now might be reconsidering their potential activities that might result in the ACM acting and being seen acting either criminally or administratively against them?
