QRZ Criticized Over Refusal to List K1MAN

All I have to say is, "Amen". Way to go QRZ!

It seems he told Riley to go pound sand. Kind of reminds me of the goat that charged a locomotive. Have to admire his spunk but darn his judgement.

Does anyone know why he is playing hardball with the FCC? Is he suffering from dementia, or sheer ignorance?

 

Ok. We need to work towards getting this retard off the air. He is such a rude and disrespectful moron.

 

I strongly agree with the decision taken by QRZ to delist
K1MAN. Now if we could get Riley to quit using the kid
gloves when dealing with Baxter and issue a very large
NAL and confiscate his equipment we could be rid of this
embarrassment and black eye to Ham Radio.

 

In regards to this posting, after all these years, I am still confused about why the FCC does not act to shut him down.  Maybe they can't.

Either the FCC is unwilling to go to court against Baxter or Baxter is not really breaking any laws.  While his "Show" is reprehensible to the ham community, the FCC seems to be at a loss on how to shut him down.  Notice I did not use his calls.  I am censoring him also.

Just looked on QRZ to verify that....good. Now, I also went to this site and typed in K1MAN. You won't believe what he has for the QSL manager.....whew! And notice the comment at the top of the page.
QRZ has made the correct decision concerning the listing of this......person.

Give an inch to certain individuals, they take the whole yard!... and they want others to agree with their viewpoint regardless of how immature and misguided it sounds...

 

I don’t think Mr. Baxter is worth worrying about, nevertheless I do understand and agree with QRZ’s decision to distance itself from him. However, removing him from the QRZ listings is, arguably, censorship.

So I suggest that QRZ allow the mundane licensing information about K1MAN remain (e.g. name, address, license class, call sign, etc.), but ban Mr. Baxter from the site (refuse him an account) and prevent him from submitting his e-mail address, QSL card image and biography.

QRZ has a link to that info via the FCC site, so that's pretty much exactly the way it is.

 

It is very unfortunate, but K1MAN has been a disturbed individual for many years now as evidenced by his unfortunate behaviors.

First amendment issues refer to government preventing someone one from expressing their viewpoints. It does not come into play with a private organization such as qrz.com, therefore there can be no violation of free speech in such cases.

Your sandbox, your tonka trucks, your rules. Right on OM

Hang in there guys... I am positive that the FCC and by all means the ARRL will stop this soon......Dont ya just love the ARRL?

 

You have my compliments, Fred!

QRZ being blasted by that total jerk is sort of like France's Le Monde endorsing Kerry instead of Bush. It means you're on the right track.
