       Is  this	 "radical  chic",  or  just  poor   judgement?
       Congratulations,	you have just used the net to advocate
       the breaking of federal and international regulations:

	  + FCC	Rules &	Regulations:
	       - R&R 89.51 - Station Authorization Required.
	       - R&R 89.117 -  Acceptability  of  Transmitters
		 for Licensing

	  + Communications Act of 1934:
	       - Sec 324 - Use of Minimum Power

	  + International Telecommunications  Commission  Con-
	    vention 1947:
	       - Article 44 - Harmful Interference

	  + International Radio	 Regulations  Annexed  to  the
	    International Telecommunications Convention	1947:
	       - Article 13 -  Unnecessary  transmissions  and
		 superfluous signals
	       - Article 22 - Station license

	  + Geneva Treaty 1959:
	       - Article 1 Sec 3 - Harmful interference


       I hope you don't	hold amateur or	commercial licenses.

	...Bob
