Solve : No Egypt Internet. Hams Help.? |
|
Answer» This was found on Yahoo. Anonymous Internet Users Help Egypt CommunicateEdit. Just found this item in PC World. Quote Jan 31, 2011 5:10 pm "A world without the Internet is unimaginable"That's a informative article, however I disagree with the 'experts'. Just because nobody is broadcasting yet just makes the ham operators smart, it certainly doesn't mean that it's a non viable resource.These events are momentous in the historical CONTEXT. This very reputable news service is broadcasting live continuously from the central Cairo square. http://english.aljazeera.net/ A large screen TV is at this moment being erected in the square. truenorthWhy does the Topic state Hams help when clearly they cannot ? ? Quote from: patio on February 01, 2011, 01:15:27 PM Why does the Topic state Hams help when clearly they cannot ? ?The correct Title should be: Ham Radio Not a Viable Option for Egypt What about, "Studies show bears unanimously opposed to the creation of a North American Hegemony"?I think this one of the key sentences in the article. Quote Those with licenses are apparently, wisely, keeping LOW," he said. They may be concerned about who is listening and whether there will be consequences for what they say. Apparently, in Egypt, like in the US, and most countries the government licenses Hams, and could easily pull a Ham's license if the government thought the Ham was broadcasting anything detrimental to the government. I doubt that would happen in the US, but in other countries, who knows.

Radio amateurs ("hams") are forbidden to "broadcast" anything at all. They are permitted to carry out one-to-one communication with one other operator at a time. The American FCC rules state that "amateur stations are forbidden to engage in any form of broadcasting or in any activity related to program production or news gathering for broadcasting purposes." In just about every country where they are allowed to operate, radio amateurs are forbidden by the terms of their licenses from discussing anything of a political nature. The FCC rules state "transmissions to a DIFFERENT country, where permitted, must be made in PLAIN language and must be limited to messages of a technical nature relating to tests and to remarks of a personal character."

I reiterate - careful. |
