K1MAN
Will the alleged radio criminal, K1MAN, lose his license? I
read the ARRL Enforcement Log recently, which contained a letter to the fat one from RH, which basically stated that fatty would lose his ticket unless he stopped qrming, and trying to pedal his useless **** over his stupid qrm-cast.... well he's still here! Anyone got the scoop on when the fat boy will go away permanently? |

Bob - do you really think the FCC will do something THIS TIME? ! ak ---------------------------------------------- FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Field Operations Bureau Washington D.C. 20554 Honorable Howard Metzenbaum 10411 Federal Building Cincinnati, Ohio 45202 Dear Senator Metzenbaum: Thank you for your letter of November 30, 1992 on behalf of [ak] of West Chester, Ohio. Mr. Glen Baxter, licensee of amateur radio station K1MAN, was cited on at least two occasions for observed rule violations including illegal broadcasting and deliberate interference. Substantial forfeiture amounts were levied. The amateur rules prohibit stations from engaging in any form of "broadcasting" which is defined as the transmission of signals intended for reception by the general public, either direct or relayed. On the other hand, "information bulletins" are not considered a form of broadcasting and are authorized under the rules. An information bulletin is defined as "[a] message directed only to amateur operators consisting solely of subject matter of direct interest to the amateur service." The FCC monitoring network is continuing to observe the transmissions of K1MAN. If observed transmissions are "broadcasting" versus "information bulletins" then appropriate enforcement action will be undertaken. If Mr. [K] believes a particular segment constitutes broadcasting, he should immediately communicate with a staff member of the Commission's Belfast, Maine monitoring station at 207-338-4088. We are committed to continued enforcement of the amateur radio rules. The transmissions of K1MAN will continue to be observed from time-to-time. As priorities permit, the channels are monitored and notices issued where appropriate. Sincerely, Richard M. Smith Chief, Field Operations Bureau ---------------------------------------------- Federal Communications Commission Field Operations Bureau 1 Batterymarch Park Quincy, Massachusetts 02169-7495 December 23, 1992 [AK] West Chester, Ohio Dear Mr. [K]: Refer to File: 93-BS 0027 This is to acknowledge your various correspondence to this office concerning Glenn Baxter of Belgrade Lakes, Maine, licensee of Amateur Radio Station K1MAN, activities in the Amateur Radio bands. The Commission is well aware of Mr. Baxter's activities, and has taken action against him. Hopefully, when this action is completed, Mr Baxter will cease these activities. Your concern about Mr Baxter's activities is appreciated. Yours truly, Vincent F. Kajunski Engineer in Charge |
Of course, I was not the first to ever complain to the FCC about K1MAN's
operation. Glenn actually declared a national emergency for Bermuda when their own government had determined there was no national emergency (the hurricane missed). That sort of thing really doesn't make for good international relations. ak ---------------------------------------------- FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION WASHINGTON. D.C. 20554 DEC 8,1987 Mr. [F L] Brookfleld, Connecticut 06804 Dear Mr. [L]: This is in response to your letter of November 15 1987, complaining about interference to your communications from amateur radio station K1MAN licensed to Glenn Baxter. The following Information would be helpful to us In evaluating your complaint: (1), Did amateur station K1MAN transmit directly over ongoing communications? If so, did the content of amateur station KIMAN's communications (or any other Information) Indicate that the control operator knew that he/she was causing amateur station K1MAN to transmit over ongoing communications? (2) Can you specify particular Instances when Interference occurred? If so, can you furnish tape recordings of those Instances? You may send the information to us at the following address: Personal Radio Branch, Federal Communications Commission, Washington, D.C. 20554,Attention: File 7240-F. Sincerely, John B. Johnston Chief, Personal Radio Branch ---------------------------------------------- P.O. Box KM 1060, Hamilton, Bermuda. April 25th. 1988 K1MAN, Glenn Baxter Long Point Lodge Belgrade Lakes, ME 04918 U.S.A. Dear OM, Yesterday morning at 12.30 UTC the Bermuda Net operated on 14275mHz, as it does every Sunday morning and has done so for the past ten years. At the time of the San Salvador disaster, we made way for you to operate emergency traffic and very happily co-operated as we always do for any station with such traffic. This evening at 21.58 UTC I was talking to G4WIS and at 22.00 UTC you again did a broadcast without ensuring that 14.275 mHz was clear. You consistently come on this frequency at 13.00 UTC without checking whether the frequency is in use. Fortunately, you do not cause a problem insofar that we have QS0's with hams who have linears. They get through and have the great luck in not being able to hear your station. On a number of occasions we have telephoned you at home, but we do not get any reply, so can only assume that you are operating an unattended station. If you want to broadcast, may I suggest that you contact the FCC for a license to operate on the Commercial bands, but please do not operate a broadcast type transmission on the ham bands which are for two way communication. It is acknowledged procedure in Bermuda and most countries whose operators are ladies and, gentlemen, to enquire whether the frequency is In use, however if you do not fall into either category, then I understand the situation perfectly and there is no answer to such crass ignorance. I hope that I can appeal to your better half to co-operate with the hams of the world, I do not say fellow hams because I do not think that you can be classified as such, and I request that you move into the Commercial areas as that happens to be your forte. Best 73, Antony [S] (IARU Region 2 Liaison Officer RSB) |

You have in basically correct Dan. K1MAN, is a radio bully. He seems to think that whatever he does, thinks, or wants to do takes priority over everyone and everything else. Case in point... For a period of about 2 years K1MAN vacated the frequency of 14.275. During that time several stations began operating there. One day up comes Glen Baxter and he tells us to get off because it is time for his broadcast. He didn't ask, he didn't even attempt to be polite. He just decided it was time to resume his trashcasting on ''HIS" frequency. A major fight erupted and the latest FCC action against him is the result of it. Recently he decided to finally move off of the GA Sideband net frequency of 3975, he moved up the band a bit and ordered the UFO network to get off his frequency. Same same from Baxter boy. Several years before he had a major fight with the 3975 crowd. Unfortunatly the rebels capitulated. Mr. Baxter is 'real popular' with the AM crowd in New England. Ask them about his ''full carrier AM'' signal on 3890 nightly. Dan/W4NTI |

Dan/W4NTI Dan - Glenn has been running over nets and broadcasting inappropriate junk so long (in 1998 he was wiping out the Sunday morning Bermuda Net on 14.275mHz) that I begin to wonder if current FCC people realize that it has been 17 years or more since the FCC was first going to fix the problem. Baxter is not only a domestic problem, but an international embarrassment. Hams in other countries are incredulous that the FCC cannot or will not do something about him. ak |

The only thing that MAN has going for him is that he lives way up in the boonies of Maine. If he were located in a more 'urban populated' area it's a guess someone would have probably either cut 5' sections out of his coax, or took a power saw cutting wheel to the base of his antenna tower at 3:00 AM a long time ago. (Not that I am condoning or suggesting any such activity by anyone mind you. I do not in fact!) Just that for the most part I have observed that ham QRM'ers and people like CB'er's who cause TVI located in the more densely populated suburban areas seem to have their neighbors find the source of the problem and take 'corrective measures' rather sooner than the FCC does! |

Ovbiously I know enough about Part 97 of the RULES to know that K1MAN is violating them. I supposed I shall have to take the time here to bolster my opinion with a few cold hard facts as stated in the commission rules. §97.113(b) states "An amateur station shall not engage in any form of broadcasting, nor may an amateur station transmit one-way communications except as specifically provided in these rules; nor shall an amateur station engage in any activity related to program production or news gathering for broadcasting purposes, except that communications directly related to the immediate safety of human life or the protection of property may be provided by amateur stations to broadcasters for dissemination to the public where no other means of communication is reasonably available before or at the time of the event." Is K1MAN violating this section of the rules...According to Riley, that's a yes. The commission rules also state that frequencies are open to all licensed amateurs, correct? No one has the right to demand someone depart the frequency because a person wished to use it. Standard amateur practice ssays that an Amateur liosten to the frequency and make a short question asking if the freq is in use. Does K1MAN bother or just say "Get off MY frequency!" §97.111(b) states "(b) In addition to one-way transmissions specifically authorized elsewhere in this Part, an amateur station may transmit the following types of one-way communications: (1) Brief transmissions necessary to make adjustments to the station; (2) Brief transmissions necessary to establishing two-way communications with other stations; (3) Telecommand; (4) Transmissions necessary to providing emergency communications; (5) Transmissions necessary to assisting persons learning, or improving proficiency in, the international Morse code; (6) Transmissions necessary to disseminate information bulletins; (7) Transmissions of telemetry. " W1AW falls under Sub-Paragraphs 5 and 6 in that they issue daily code practice runs as well as weekly bulletins or even relays the word that the FCC is suspending the rules due to an emergency situation. Tat's covered under sub-paragraph 4. All done in accordance with the rules. buddy. Does K1MAN do daily code practice sessions? Does K1MAN relay information bulleting? and does K1MAN engage in transmissions to aid emergency communications? From what FCC is saying. the answer to all three is "No", but, he stays just far enough below the FCC "radar" that nothing's being done that people would want done. Now...I've made the case here. Find a reason to knock it down...if you dare. -- Dan, KD8AGU Please remove ".nospam" to reply via email. |

He claims he is activated because of the hurricane emergency. Gee wonder why no one else has to blabcast to do things like that? SATERN ain't trashing up the spectrum with useless broadcasting of his announcements and taped play of various internet accessable info bulletins. Amazing indeed. Now he wants to call him on the phone to report traffic, tells us about HF nets on 275 that can't possible be there with his blabbing all the time. What a world class LID. Dan/W4NTI |

I beg to differ. ARRL is within the guidelines of Part 97 of the Commission's rules and. last I checked, knows that the frequency is clear before starting their programs. Also, it's widely known and accepted that W!AW has scheduled "All Station" announcements as well as Code practice. All within the bounds of the rules. K1MAN, as I understand it, doesn't care about if the frequency is is use and walks over everyone in an attempt to gain financially from selling his equipment over the air. -- Dan, KD8AGU Please remove ".nospam" to reply via email. You have in basically correct Dan. K1MAN, is a radio bully. He seems to think that whatever he does, thinks, or wants to do takes priority over everyone and everything else. Case in point... For a period of about 2 years K1MAN vacated the frequency of 14.275. During that time several stations began operating there. One day up comes Glen Baxter and he tells us to get off because it is time for his broadcast. He didn't ask, he didn't even attempt to be polite. He just decided it was time to resume his trashcasting on ''HIS" frequency. A major fight erupted and the latest FCC action against him is the result of it. Recently he decided to finally move off of the GA Sideband net frequency of 3975, he moved up the band a bit and ordered the UFO network to get off his frequency. Same same from Baxter boy. Several years before he had a major fight with the 3975 crowd. Unfortunatly the rebels capitulated. Mr. Baxter is 'real popular' with the AM crowd in New England. Ask them about his ''full carrier AM'' signal on 3890 nightly. Dan/W4NTI Dan - Glenn has been running over nets and broadcasting inappropriate junk so long (in 1998 he was wiping out the Sunday morning Bermuda Net on 14.275mHz) that I begin to wonder if current FCC people realize that it has been 17 years or more since the FCC was first going to fix the problem. Baxter is not only a domestic problem, but an international embarrassment. Hams in other countries are incredulous that the FCC cannot or will not do something about him. ak Oh I know......I've been aware of MAN and his antics for many many years. In fact I just turned on my 20 meter rig and I had it on 14.275....guess what ? MAN must have decided to move back to 275 from 272.....but this time he is playing THREE SEPERATE TAPES at the same time. I guess this is his version of ''simotrash', eh? Dan/W4NTI |

Pitman, Government Telecommunications Officer, Department of Telecommunications, Hamilton. Dear Ted, I am faxing a transcript of the broadcast put out by K1MAN last week. When you have read this I would like to have a meeting with you, maybe we could have lunch and discuss it then, to fill you in on what actually happened. Your support with this would be appreciated. I have been to the American Consulate and will be writing a formal letter of complaint this week, requesting a public apology from K1MAN. He is advocating that I should lose my license for NOT passing third party traffic when the "world needed to know" and he had declared an emergency. He was doing this under the authority of the "FCC" according to him. I reminded him that we were not a State of the United States of America and that we were governed by the Department of Telecommunications and also the British arrangements for third party traffic. He could declare whatever he wanted to but until we had clearance, we would not pass it No emergency had been declared and as far as we were concerned it was an unofficial net standing by in case we were needed should an emergency be declared. He did not like being informed that we were handling the situation ourselves very efficiently, without his help. Please telephone me when it is convenient and I will explain more, or as I said, maybe we could have lunch. Yours sincerely, [AS] VP9-- Suite 201 . International Centre . Bermudiana Road . Hamilton . Bermuda ---------------------------------- This is a response to the editorial broadcast by K1MAN after Hurricane Dean. STATEMENT K1MAN stated "IARN activated for Hurricane Dean as it neared Bermuda, Sunday August 6th. 1989 at 11.30 UTC. IARN Headquarters in Belgrade Lakes etc. received a call from [TS], VP9--, requesting assistance from IARN on 14.275mHz. Tony wants to activate 14.275mHz. . .etc. " FACT - At 11.15 UTC, VP9-- & VP9__ activated the Bermuda net. A broadcast was in progress and VP9-- decided to telephone KlMAN. "We want 14.275mHz cleared due to the impending Hurricane." Response from Glen Baxter, "No problem" and the telephone conversation finished. FACT - At no time was a request made for IARN to assist or to activate. FACT - KlMAN checked into the Bermuda net at 11.45 UTC and he was informed, (as were many others who had checked in) of the current situation in Bermuda. STATEMENT "Associated Press and therefore the entire world, was, de facto, cut off from the world of public information dissemination.......... up to the minute detail report, now assured that ham radio and IARN had a well established and well maintained link to Bermuda" FACT - Glen Baxter was not on a well maintained link to Bermuda. He checked in and was given information the same as many other hams. The so called emergency was K1MAN generated and not an emergency in Bermuda. The reports of lack of readiness at 20.00 UTC were absolute poppycock. All of this information had been issued by the Bermuda Hams between the hours of 11.15 UTC and 13.00 UTC that Bermuda had been well prepared. STATEMENT by Glen Baxter ".....festival the previous Thursday which included a soccer match between teams on either end of the Island." FACT - Again, poppycock. K1MAN had been informed that the Cup Match was a cricket game between St. Georges and Somerset, had been played, the result was a draw and everyone had a good time. The match was on Thursday and Friday when the storm was hundreds of miles away. This Information had been given hours earlier. FACT - IARU had generated an emergency, no one else. Totally uncalled for "here is the important news we gathered for Associated Press." IARN were more interested in promoting themselves and Glen Baxter in particular and when he found that he was not wanted on the net and did not have control of it he resorted to terminological inexactitudes to achieve his ends. FACT - Glen Baxter relayed conversations he had with VP9-- to Associated Press without the consent or knowledge OF VP9-- at the time. This is in contravention of International Law. As an American citizen he has no right to assume Governmental authority and issue edicts to hams in other countries. At no time can he advocate publicly that licenses should be revoked and should he have any complaints then these should be directed through the Department of Telecommunications in Bermuda. His pontificating on people's attitudes and his declarations of emergencies allows him to promote himself and his organization in such a way that his approach does sound plausible. As they say you can fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time and K1MAN does not fool any Bermuda Ham. His trip to Moscow paid for by the Young Communist League leaves one to suspect his motives and his reporting. .... (NOTE: emphasis in red was added) |

If W1AW can "broadcast", so can K1MAN. If you don't like the content of K1MAN's broadcast, start your own. But for now, SHUT THE HELL UP. I refuse to be drawn into a flame war, sir. Ovbiously I know enough about Part 97 of the RULES to know that K1MAN is violating them. I supposed I shall have to take the time here to bolster my opinion with a few cold hard facts as stated in the commission rules. §97.113(b) states "An amateur station shall not engage in any form of broadcasting, nor may an amateur station transmit one-way communications except as specifically provided in these rules; nor shall an amateur station engage in any activity related to program production or news gathering for broadcasting purposes, except that communications directly related to the immediate safety of human life or the protection of property may be provided by amateur stations to broadcasters for dissemination to the public where no other means of communication is reasonably available before or at the time of the event." Is K1MAN violating this section of the rules...According to Riley, that's a yes. The commission rules also state that frequencies are open to all licensed amateurs, correct? No one has the right to demand someone depart the frequency because a person wished to use it. Standard amateur practice ssays that an Amateur liosten to the frequency and make a short question asking if the freq is in use. Does K1MAN bother or just say "Get off MY frequency!" §97.111(b) states "(b) In addition to one-way transmissions specifically authorized elsewhere in this Part, an amateur station may transmit the following types of one-way communications: (1) Brief transmissions necessary to make adjustments to the station; (2) Brief transmissions necessary to establishing two-way communications with other stations; (3) Telecommand; (4) Transmissions necessary to providing emergency communications; (5) Transmissions necessary to assisting persons learning, or improving proficiency in, the international Morse code; (6) Transmissions necessary to disseminate information bulletins; (7) Transmissions of telemetry. " W1AW falls under Sub-Paragraphs 5 and 6 in that they issue daily code practice runs as well as weekly bulletins or even relays the word that the FCC is suspending the rules due to an emergency situation. Tat's covered under sub-paragraph 4. All done in accordance with the rules. buddy. Does K1MAN do daily code practice sessions? Does K1MAN relay information bulleting? and does K1MAN engage in transmissions to aid emergency communications? From what FCC is saying. the answer to all three is "No", but, he stays just far enough below the FCC "radar" that nothing's being done that people would want done. Now...I've made the case here. Find a reason to knock it down...if you dare. -- Dan, KD8AGU Please remove ".nospam" to reply via email. If someone is nutty enough to support K1MAN, as this mrhamradio appears to be, then reasoning and facts aren't going to have much effect. |
