We have several guys that fly ham band in our club and, of course, a guest could show up at any time on the wrong ham freq. What is this mysterious magic that Broken thinks is linked to ham freqs?
You guys are right. It is amazingly educational to see some of the rationalization put forth here. Unbelievable!
The best arguement you have for not using ham is that someone, someday might possibly show up at your field and not know what frequency he/she is on? And this is believable?
In truth, the best arguement would be tilting the odds in your favor. How many club members do you have that fly on 72 mHz? How many on ham? Which radio system do you think the newbies are going to buy? Your witness, counselor.
