Gee! That's amazing how the telephone magically becomes an "amateur Radio"
station if you hook up a Ham Radio to one end or another of the telephone
link... I bet that works for signal flags too, huh? Can't wait to hook up a
10 ft. link between my handy-talkie and my telephone so I can "dial up" my
dxcc!

> Anyone who says different is a filthy bastard.

Yes, I can see how you have applied flawless logic to your alleged
"thinking" on this matter.  A proud day for amateur telephone!

Exactly the point.

It's magic folks!

Hook a radio to your telephone line, and et viola the entire world
telephone system becomes ham radio!

What is the difference between using a telephone with touchtones to control an
amateur station and what you're claiming?  You seem to have this irrational
fear of using the internet despite posting usenet groups which require the
internet for distribution.  Further, it's irrelevant to me how a signal is
propagated if the means of propagation don't have a non amateur acting as
control operator, so whether a signal goes through the internet, the
ionosphere, or 3700 amateur UHF auxiliary stations is just of technical
interest to me.  Quite frankly, unless amateurs begin experimenting with
things
and finding new usages, amateur radio won't be around for long.  What new
usages have you got to play with that will attract 11 year olds?  what new
usages that will attract lots of technically inclined 60 year olds for that
matter.  Unless amateurs use amateur radio and find things to attract
newcomers, it will die if just because there are no replacements for those who
leave or die.

Interesting way of thinking.  So if you have a radio, and plug it into
something, then that something becomes Ham radio?  That whatever
you interface the radio with is really the defining object.  Why would
the telephone system become Ham radio?

If you plugged an answering machine into the telephone system, would
the telephone system become an answering machine system?

You are obviously demented.  Please take your medicine.

Well Art, what you suggest is kinda silly isn't it?
The hobby is about radios, not telephones.

What you propose is that hams use "new things" and avoid using
those "old things" like radios, antennas, feedlines, etc.

You have any clue how silly that sounds?

Not since 1967.

Where does it say that?  Never heard of such an entry in all of
the CFR.

You're full of shit.
