[CQ] EMERGENCY ‐ AMATEUR RADIO NEEDS YOUR HELP NOW!

[M Poole]

My thoughts, when I read your post, were about the 'new' un-type-approved
Chinese radios that seem to threaten a renewed radio economy except that
the Chinese like to stick things like "scrambler" in these offerings.
Something that would prevent them from being accepted without the blink of
an eye. If the laws were changed then it would be easier to let these new
products through unchanged.

It just seems like a hastily thought out response to stream-lining type
approval requests. Something missing the open nature of the very
well-spring of creativity and possibly, then, compromising further
ingenuity by accident.
