WA Radio Scanner Users' Group

HAS SOLD.Cheers Grant vk6ngs

We are talking about the 2 callsigns that were registered to use the gateway without the owners of those callsigns knowing,callsigns have since been taken of the gateway register.Cheers Grant vk6ngs

The callsigns have been removed from the gateway registration page,thats what Rob and i have been talking about it being easy to register,its all done on a honesty system there are no real checks,you email a callsign to them with your name,wich u can get of ACMA site,they email you back saying appro...

It was done on purpose it wasnt a mistake Doug,2 callsigns have been used by pirates on D-star they whent as far as to register those callsigns with the gateway,the ppl who,s callsigns have been used had no clue,they have no D-star radio,s and have never had them.Pirates will spend what it takes i h...

I agree we are all responsable for our actions,but there are those that arnt thats why we have LAWS,the ppl supplying the radio,s to the ppl to break the law are liable.If you cant stop the ppl breaking the law you go to there supply and stop them.But there are shops that put profit above everything...

I know u can create email address,they might of used one that can be traced.I agree its to easy to sign up for D-STAR,i think the prob is with the ACMA web site you can get all the info you need from there,but having to supply a copy of your licence would stop it.I dont think D-STAR has taken into a...

I see we now have the the PIRATES on D-STAR,who ever is selling the radio,s to these pirates needs to go down harder than the pirates.If they are buying them local there is only one shop that will sell to them without a licence.If they can spend all that $$$ on radios and the time to go and get them...

Its great to see the ACMA have been taking action at long last.If 4 is the right number we are heading in the right direction & it will send a strong message that the ACMA are out and about.There will be ppl crapping themselves everytime they see a station wagon go down there street with heaps o...
