RE: Ever had a problem when swapping crystals?
The original point I made was that swapping crystals is not legal. At first, some would say "there is no law" or "it is not illegal".
Now the arguements against my point have turrned into variations of "the devil made me do it"
My point is, even if "the devil made you do it" it is still not legal.
People sell TONS of illegal transmition equipment on ebay all of the time...video transmitters, amplifiers, stuff that basically has no legal use, strictly designed to violate FCC regulations.
That does NOT make it OK to use the stuff.
I am not condoning anything Futaba does. Maybe the rest of them do the same thing or soemthing different. I really could care less.
The point is, the end user must not go into the radio and change the crystal. That is against the Code of Federal Regualations. If you want to break the law, just admit you are breaking the law, but don't try to convince newbies that it is NOT breaking the law.
