Title: Gerritsen off the air, for quite a while. Post by: WB3JOK on September 19, 2006, 12:34:06 PM Gerritsen sentenced (http://www.southgatearc.org/news/september2006/gerritsen_sentenced.htm)
Seven years in Federal prison, a fine, and 2 yrs. probation on release. If he lasts that long (he's pushing 70). I don't think the Feds have early release, either. The FCC and DOJ move slowly but apparently they do carry a big stick. I haven't been on the air for a while (shack remodeling)... what's happening with the "Other" jammer (everyone's favorite 1-land operator)? -Charles Title: Re: Gerritsen off the air, for quite a while.

They apparently gave him quite a few chances to live his life as he deems fit but without bothering others. Apparently trhat was not enough and he continued badgering others with his activities. I hate to see anyone got to jail but in this case it seems like he has nobody to blame but himself.
