Unfortunately it's only going to get worse because there is no enforcement and FCC doesn't care. Wait till the CB people find out there is no enforcement with all of them running ham rigs.
Soon, we might need a “Don’t QSO” list of lids. Like internet trolls, they only survive if you poke them, so if you hear them, spin the dial. Eventually, they will go away.
what we NEED is FCC to uphold the rules and regulations they put in place and that will never happen. look me up on QRZ I'm the only ham willing to stand up to FCC and call them out.
@@rawlinharringtonke8tiq837 I agree that would be welcomed. The FCC, however, wants us to be “self-policing”. In other words, like most of the government, will collect our taxes and license fees and give us nothing in return. This behavior has been a problem for years and does seem to be getting worse. My suggestion follows what has worked before with the local repeater lids, but if the FCC wants to start pulling licenses and issuing fines for a few of the worst offenders, that certainly will make enough noise to put many others in line a lot faster.
