Good Comments!

Posted on December 27, 2007

Fortunately I am getting some good and insightful comments of the constructive nature from Part 15 members on my 15.219(b) petition.

Fortunately I am getting some good and insightful comments of the constructive nature from Part 15 members on my 15.219(b) petition.

So far I have added some changes to the petition since then due to comments mostly from here at this site.

Over at the Yahoo LPAM group however, it is more or less de constructive. With allot of off the wall comments and spin doctoring going on there. In some very long text. Allot of long winded derogatory commentary.

Anyways I have made some very good tweaks and changes in the Petition due to the members here. So thanks for the ideas. I am glad you folk are interested in reading,

I realized from the LPAM group that people can misinterpret things. So I have added a Froward page and some comments in the suggested rules to explain clearly that the suggested rules are to make no changes in the way a current Part 15 station can operate across the 530 to 1700 kHz spectrum. And that the rules apply only to the suggested application for an alternative mode of operation. And so unless that is spelled out, there can be some misunderstanding occur.

Anyways there will be another version of the Petition as a sort of evolved Petition based upon your input. And you can read it. I suppose it will have to make it’s way around the circuits and be read and debated before some folk will pick it up and sponsor it. How long that will take, I do not know.

I added a few more illustrations and two circuit diagrams also. A tunable and amplified field strength meter and a antenna resistance bridge.

And upon suggestion I left open the idea of choosing methods to use to suppress coax emissions and added illustrations of methods. And allow for any new and good method known to work well, to be used. So as suggested, I do not confine that problem to being addressed by one method only. Any good method then can be employed. And I guess that is good for innovation.

Oh, I have been studying a Petition for LPAM or low powered AM. That is sort of a hot topic and very political. Too much going on and to much pulling of factions apart. I figured those folk will be debating for ten years on that. It looks kind of dismal there. Anyways, Part 15 can be made a little better I think. And maybe a little more fun perhaps.

The LPAM folk want to suggest raising Part 15 to 1 watt. Unfortunately that would not be a Part 15 application and would be more of an intermediate class radio service that would have to fall under rules of it’s own. It would have to be written for new rules for a new service and not be suggested to be placed under Part 15. 1 watt is in the range of low power and not micro power. So it would have to be written as such.

I am only writing about how to use an alternative antenna system in Part 15 and make it comply with standards the FCC might find acceptable. And acceptable sort of along insight you would obtain from reading about the TIS radio service specs.

Anyways thanks for the good comments and emails.
