"Your license permits You to use certain addresses exclusively for the purpose of Amateur Radio communications and experimentation, or other special uses as may be agreed to by ARDC"

Erm  .... no it does not. I hold licenses in both the US and UK and nowhere in my license conditions does it say this. I think ARDC needs to modify this statement to something like "possesition of a amateur radio licence permits You to ....."

Hi all,

The Terms of Service states:

"Your license permits You to use certain addresses exclusively for the purpose of Amateur Radio communications and experimentation, or other special uses as may be agreed to by ARDC"

I was wondering if this was clarified anywhere with examples of acceptable use cases? A few examples that I'm curious if they're permitted or not:

• Hosting a radio club website that's accessible from the public internet, including from non radio amateurs.
• Providing general outbound internet access for radio amateurs connecting via RF, whether its AX.25 or WiFi operating on the allocated amateur radio frequencies
• Hosting not strictly amateur radio services such as an IRC server for discussing cars, but it's only reachable from other 44net addresses and RF users
• Providing general outbound internet access to servers and services that might need to pull software updates from non-radio amateur servers. 
• Providing connectivity to a radio amateur related server such as a DMR Master, to other radio amateur related servers outside of 44net

Any guidance would be appreciated.
