[OZAPRS] Re: Foundation Calls reminder

[Scott Evans]

Hello to all...

Um, I think that the interpretation of anyone running Ui-View on a PC
constitutes a amateur radio station has overlooked the software licence!
that is what governs the software usage However, if a foundation
licensee has requested a "Validation Number" then herein lies the
problem. Maybe it would be advisable inform the Distributors of
Validation Numbers, to not allow VKxFxxx calls a Validation Number! then
this way there is no way possible then their traffic would be gated onto
a RF network. There is nothing stopping anybody from viewing APRS
Traffic licenced or not it would also be a waste of time to try and
"Exclude" such (by way of Server/I-Gate filters) as there could also be
the potential to block a valid user!

So in my summery...

If a Foundation Licensee is breaching their respective "LCD" then a
friendly chat ought to resolve the issue! (after all aren't we a self
regulatory body?)

If a Foundation Licensee has acquired a Validation Number then they
should be informed of the "Potential to breach their respective LCD" if
it (the validation number) is used whilst connected to an APRS Internet
server.
