K1MAN BULLETIN - B051017 - K1MAN LICENSE EXPIRATION TODAY
IARN and AARA have been flooded with questions about the effect on
K1MAN's FCC license which expires today. There is NO EFFECT, since
a renewal application was timely filed and no FCC action has been
taken so far on K1MAN's renewal request.
Secondly, the $21,000 Notice of APPARENT liability issued to K1MAN has
not been affirmed by the Commission, and the FCC has also failed to
provide the discovery documents requested by K1MAN for his trial like
hearing preparation. This requested hearing has not been granted.
Both are guaranteed by the 14th Amendment to the United States
Constitution with regard to K1MAN's right to due process of law.
Thirdly, by statute, none of the issues raised in the $21,000 Notice
of APPARENT liability can ever be used in any other legal prooceeding
such as a renewal hearing or even a revocation hearing unless the
fine is actually paid (admission of guilt) or collected (determination
of guilt).
Fourthly, most of the issues raised in the $21,000 NAL were also
raised in the 1990 NALs which were never paid or collected and thus
are barred by statute (or estopped) from being used again.
Fifthly, the Commission has been notified that K1MAN will continue to
operate indefinitely until all the legal matters regarding K1MAN's
license are settled in court, and the FCC has not disputed this
entitled K1MAN right to indefinite continued operation.
What was the FCC thinking when they opened up this K1MAN pandora's
box? "Let me guess," says Glenn Baxter, K1MAN, "They weren't.
K1MAN's bulletin service is legally the same as W1AW and no more of a
promotion of AARA, the American Amateur Radio Association, than W1AW
is a promotion of ARRL. When I got my Novice license in 1956, I
listened to W1AW code practice and had to buy an ARRL handbook to see
if I had coppied correctly. All AARA does is give out its web site
www.K1MAN.com so listeners can check the thus published K1MAN bulletin
schedule. Anything else is incidental, just as talking someone in to
a ham fest and then charging admission at the gate is incidental.
QST QST de W1AW is certainly promoting the League's magazine but also incidental. The FCC is a very corrupt agency and has been lobbied by
equally corrupt ARRL, scared to death of strong competition from AARA.
The League has recently mismanaged emergency funds, a crime against
humanity, in my opinion," Mr. Baxter says.
Received this today..........
