Sky command has so far been illegal because the FCC considers the path from HF back to the hand-held (or mobile), which is on 2 meters, to be part of the control of the HF radio. Since this is on 2 meters, and control must be on 220 or above, it was not allowed. However it would appear that is about to change. WT Docket No. 04-140 addresses this (and other changes) and in it, the FCC states: "Because we have no basis to conclude that auxiliary stations transmitting on the 2 m band would cause harmful interference or that user coordination would not be possible, we believe that Kenwood's proposed rule change will be consistent with our flexible-use policy in the amateur service." See http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/FCC-04-79A1.pdf Also see http://www.arrl.org/arrlletter/04/0416/ , the ARRL Letter. Satellite frequencies and some others are excluded. Comments are due by June 15. Don't worry about what people think; they don't do it very often. Steve, K8SP
