[k6arc] Reverse Autopatch

[WS6P - Sam]

Greetings,
 
This is from the ARRL phone patch, autopatch and HF/VHF/UHF operating
Guidelines Web page.
Each of you can interrupted it anyway you like.
 
As an control operator, I will not answer an reverse autopatch, I value my
license.

=====================================================
Reverse Autopatch 


No unlicensed person may initiate an amateur transmission without the
knowledge and approval of the station's control operator. Incoming calls to
an autopatch must be answered and screened off the air by the control
operator to ensure rule compliance. If an incoming call automatically causes
the repeater to transmit, even if it's just a signal tone or notification
message, then it is possible for an unlicensed person to initiate a
transmission without the control operator's knowledge or approval, which is
not permitted. The use of a reverse autopatch is permitted only under very
limited conditions. This is not to restrict the Amateur Service unduly, but
to protect the character of the service.
