Steve,
This is very unfair.
Yes, I am affiliated with NW Digital Radio, but that doesn't change the
current regulations or patents. I only bring them up when something is
proposed which might cause someone to violate them if they were
unfamiliar. And, yes, there are people who are not familiar with the rules
or patents.
Personally, I think our rules are over restrictive and should be modified,
but not ignored. I also believe our patent laws grant patents for many
things that should not be patented, but if there is a patent, we should
follow the law or get the law changed, or fight a particular patent in
court.
Don't attribute motivation to others when you have no idea what motivates
them.

Brian,
You read my mind.
You all have to excuse John, K7VE. He represents North West Digital and
has a bias. They have been trying to develop a 70 cm data radio for a
while.
Same goes if you are on other lists and he brings up the DVSI/AMBE patents,
as NWDigital sells a hardware AMBE device.
