Dick Gower is correct - it was a change and not what CASA then said as a "clarification". Why is this so? Well it seems that those within CASA that promoted the change, did not really understand what they were doing and why. One has to wonder just what precipitated this matter and why CASA have handled it so poorly. :mad:

I'll make a wild guess: Incompetence?

Your post #103, LB.

The accusation of 'incompetence' is a bit harsh. Try, instead: 'We're from the government and we're here to help you!' Add: 'We know squat, but we know what's good for you!'

Just when I was trying to throttle back on the booze!

How did this go, has it hit the courts yet or had any positive movement?

It is understood that a draft discussion paper on the change of procedures for broadcasts in class G has been circulated to the RAPAC convenors for comment prior to wider distribution next month. The subject is also on the agenda of all the RAPACs.

It's time to get on board the MULTICOM bus and see where it's heading next:

I smell "total information awareness", the same driver is pushing ADSB for all. Technology will always be abused by Government if they can get away with it.

Recording of ADSB plus area frequency transmissions gives CASA the ability to automatically generate a raft of infringement notices. That means $$$$, just look at speed cameras.
