<font color='black' size='2' face='arial'>I was very polite. I explained the situation and told him he was causing interference. I didn't demand that he do anything. If I recall, the last time we had issues with packet it was due to a mistake on their end. Hopefully thats the case here and its simply a matter of them correcting it. If that's not the case, then we can discuss it further.

<div>Thats if he even checks the mailbox that he has listed on QRZ....</div>

<div>If no response we may have to try snail mail.</div>

<div>Are you aware you (or someone using your callsign) are transmitting packet
signals on 144.450? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>This frequency is used by a large group of local stations for simplex FM ,
and has been for nearly 20 years.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We also run an echolink simplex link on the frequency, and have been doing
so for over 3 years</div>
<div> </div>
<div>These packet signals are interfering with us. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>K1TMS-9*>T1PV6X (UI):</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The above packet was monitored at approximately 2:15 EST today, March
8th.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you,</div>

<div>Hi guys,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Due to the persistence of the packet signal on "450", I have added a 162.2 tone squelch to my receiver. If you wish to be heard by my station, a 162.2 tone will be required until further notice.<br>
<br>
Thanks, Bob N1UJS</div>
