Actually, the point of the topic was to inform me if the application worked as I described.
Since I noted that I'm of the opinion that encryption (in some cases) is allowed on Ham Radio, that was a non-issue.
US Part 97 never says "encryption is prohibited," it says:
"RTTY and data emissions using unspecified digital codes must not be transmitted for the purpose of obscuring the meaning of any communication."
What is a communication??? 47 U.S. Code § 153(40) Radio communication: 'The term “radio communication” or “communication by radio” means the transmission by radio of writing, signs, signals, pictures, and sounds of all kinds, including all instrumentalities, facilities, apparatus, and services (among other things, the receipt, forwarding, and delivery of communications) incidental to such transmission.'
You may wish to look through the list of digital codes specified in Part 97 and use Wireshark to sniff SSL packets...you may find you can read the HTTP GET command, source, destination, requests, requests to exchange, etc. in plain English, ASCII is exempt the last time I checked. Even on the 802.11 level, source, destination and acknowledgments can be read. I don't want to enter a large debate, but I wouldn't suggest seeking a rule-making on it either.
