Landyman or should that be Ladyman? Up your kilt you dozy wassock!

[rareads]

How ridicoulous £9K for that, while all the while rapists, murderers, don't even get prison let alone a fine. Makes me ashamed ito live in this crap country run by a bunch of morons.

what some of you non hams seem to know is this idiot was going through repeaters and no one else could use them,if he wanted to be such an idiot,why did he not stop on cb,not that all cb'ers are idiots i hasten to add.i have no sympathy with him,obviously more money than sense,should have fined hi £95,000,would have not been so cocky then,and i have never heard worse on ham radio,but i have heard this idiot years ago blocking out repeaters for hours on end,wow,how mature is that!!!

Another one in a high pitched voice was G7KCX through the London repeaters " Hello everybody". Leslie George Jones, flying down the stairs, arrived in a Peugeot and left in a f*@king ambulance. I am still waiting for my frying lesson as you was getting a free frying lesson with every flying lesson !

This one has more money than common sense. Poor little naughty boy. Daddy should have smacked his hand and made him go to bed, without his teddy. Yea F everybody who wanted to use the air I want to play . Served him right. He should have had all of his gear smashed up in front of him, like what use to happen if you were caught using, talking ,on the old AM illegal CB. That was every bit of kit, not just the CB rig. All his music gear the lot would have gone .

Amateur radio is pointless... The fact that I can type this and you can all see it is proof.

Its so last century!!! Why bother fining this guy, apart from signal blocking and interference etc... there is no point having any other rules.

[bolloxinator]

What a retard. "Businessman", says it all really. I suppose it's this or cocaine.

[sythead]

your a sad git man

[battlestarone]

we have arse wholes on the air like this up here in scotland,ofcom keep coming up with excuses not to take action,bring back the big fines and the 5 years bans,ham radio has gone right down hill and ofcom and the rsgb are to blame,we never had as much trouble on the air before they brought in the new licence,s,the best way to get the message through is hit offenders in the pocket where it hurts the most.

[RIDDICKorigional]

Yes i am one of the extremely small minority of genuine hams who stays to the rules, i have a foundation license and use a 10 watt Q.R.P radio, so why should i stay to the rules and the majority break them ?

[RIDDICKorigional]

foundation license holders get loadsa stick on the air by other hams for using more power, so what about all the intermediates running full power they think because they have a intermediate license then that makes them ok n can run more power without the hassle of being bothered by other hams, what about the full licenses who exceed the legal limit mmmmmmm they all break the rules so why do other hams persist to target foundation license class ? there are rules n regs but they are not followed!
