HAM is for the discussion of amateur radio in all of its forms.

By your participation in this echo, you agree to the following rules:

* No discussion or endorsement of illegal behavior in amateur radio.

* Real names are required to be used in this echo.  No aliases.  If
  your BBS software will not allow you to toggle between real name and
  alias in the message header, sign your message with your real name.

* All messages must be in English.  You may post a message in your native
  language as long as an English translation accompanies the native
  post in the same message.

* No blatently off-topic posts such as BBS ads, "test" messages,
  et cetera.

* Any traffic concerning Fidonet matters, such as alleged "echo
  hijackings", complaints about other echoes and their moderators,
  or any traffic construed as such by the moderators is OFF-TOPIC.
  Absolutely none of that is allowed in this echo and violators will
  be dealt with swiftly.  Please take such discussion to netmail or
  another appropriate echo.

* Be civil and have a sense of humor.

* Please don't gate this echo to USENET, a mailing list, another BBS
  mail network, an online Fidonet mail archive, or anything else
  without the moderator's express and written permission.  This is
  a Fidonet echo and needs to stay in Fidonet.

* This echo does not recognize any local or regional echomail policies
  such as EP1.  This echo originates in Zone 1 and follows Zone 1 policies
  concerning the "echolist".

* The moderator has the final say in dealing with problems in the echo.
  If you have something to say about a moderator's action, please
  contact them via netmail (preferred) or email.

* This is a living document and will be adjusted as needed.

* This document will be posted on the 1st and 15th of each month and
  when needed.

* Please don't hesitate to contact the moderators with any questions.

Thank you for your participation in HAM!
