[OZAPRS] NOKALL

[Ray Wells]

I don't care who he is or where he's from. NoCal as an alias might be 
acceptable in Northern California but it does not meet VK ident 
requirements. Besides, my post referred to NOKALL, no numerals, and 
California didn't have a K in it last time I looked.

As for radio inspectors, when was the last time you gave them a genuine 
(commercial) problem, and got no response? Amateurs are insignificant 
nuisances.

I believe that we, as digi sysops, have an obligation to restrict users, 
as far as possible, to legitimate operators who operate in accordance 
with OUR regulations. I believe the ACMA call it "self-policeing".
