ENFORCEMENT:
FCC BACKS REPEATER OWNERS
BAN OF UNWANTED USER

The FCC is once again backing up a repeater operator who wants to ban
a particular user from the system. Its all taking place in Ohio.
Again, the FCC's Daryl Duckworth tells us about the situation and the
agency's position in favor of the people running the machine:
--
Duckworth: "The Enforcement Bureau sent a Warning Notice to Billy R.
Marshall, N8ORF, warning him to stay off of the W8HFF repeater system
in the Toledo Ohio area. The Toledo Mobile Radio Association had
issued two letters to Marshall requesting him to stay off the repeater
due to his failure to follow operational rules.

The Enforcement Bureau reminded Marshall that control operators may
take whatever steps are necessary to insure complience with the rules
and that they will be backed up by the Commission"
--
Marshall was given 20 days from the date of receipt of the FCC letter
to reply and outline what steps he has taken to comply. (FCC, RAIN)
