Somehow, I suspect that if you can't encrypt medical information in an emergency, encrypting anything to facilitate a monetary transaction will be a bigger no-go.
Also, again, anything that makes self-policing of the ham bands any harder is not good for the service.
Hams have already lost big chunks of spectrum to commercial uses. Go use one of them, and leave hobbists alone.
- nullc 8y agoPart 97 prohibits communications where the operator has a financial interest in the communication. A common example for amateur radio use in emergency is radioing in orders for supplies. I'm sure someone could easily run afoul of the regs in doing this, but isn't obvious impermissible on its face. This sort of experimentation seems wholly in the spirit of the service to me, even if regular use wouldn't be.
