Oh dear  ..... well  the  only  time i can think that has happened is with 
the  digital voice system that  became  D-Star .. now that is very dogey and 
controlled from  you  know  where  .. and  don't  upset the  local  repeater 
group ..or  you  will be banned  world wide from the  system .. nice ..

pactor  that's licensed , my  pk232 has a serial  number , Georges  sv6agp ? 
packet  engine , yes a lot  of hams gave an input , but the  working 
version is  free along with  other useful   thing's .... but  lot  of 
people use software  that's secret with nc access to  the source  code ...Im 
using  it  now  .. win-xp pro and  all  the  other variations ...remember 
when  win-95  first  came out  .. was not  long  before  some  one  caught 
it  doing  ET-Phone  home .. not  surprised there  is a  little  paranoia 
about !

I you  look at the  comments  posted   on other  groups  about this  .. you 
will see  things got a  little  out of hand .....

G3PLX  took a  lot  of  flack  when  he  introduced psk31 .. and that  was 
from the   then gpo , as 'it' was a  secret  code system etc .. this  time 
it looks  like  the  roles are reversed !

G ..
