Another problem is that may hams think their radio has a brick wall for the opposite sideband and don't realize their signal can be heard a kHz or more on the opposite side of where they set their radio to. I have heard people using USB that you can hear part of their signal 2 or 3 kHz Below the frequency on their display.

Tom, these are great fundamental reminders to both beginner and experienced ham operators... I like the 3000KHz intentional buffer idea to make sure you stay within your privilege band plan. I also love the community involvement reminder and the focus on the Ham Radio Hobby for unity, safety and fun.

As an Alaska Ham, I can use a special portion of the 40m band since I'm located west of 130d longitude. This is especially helpful in contests were I can set myself up and run split without much pileup interference. Unfortunately, some of the "lower 48" hams just JUMP to my CQ frequency and start transmitting (they become illegal) and may result in a "Red Card" from the FCC. You nailed it... know your license limits. 73/Dan/KL1JP

Good to know, as long as everyone keeps it legal. I mean, it's all fun and games until someone loses their ticket and equipment. hi hi 73 de Tom, ND3N

He said that you could have your ham radio equipment seized. Come on, did you ever hear of the 4th. Amendment to the Constitution.

Still… it can and does happen. Look for FCC enforcement actions and you may (or may not) be surprised…
