[600MRG] QST Article

[Chris - KC0TKS]

My copy of Tile 47 CFR part 15  is obviously corrupted. it incorrectly 
states that Part 15 stations "may not cause interference and must accept 
interference from other sources. It also prohibits the operation of 
devices once the operator is notified by the FCC that the device is 
causing interference"

Someone made a huge mistake and got everything backwards.
