On AllStar link, you don't have to send in a PDF anymore of your license. If I remember correctly, I had to send a picture of my license at one point. Personally I don't care, I find it a lot easier to not have to send in this, but is that why EchoLink now does not want people to have it on their node anymore? I just think it might be easy for unlicensed trolls to get on the air under someone else's call. I have personally validated 3 call-signs for various clubs and a friend and it was pretty easy to register because I didn't even need to ask the club for their license electronic copy / photo. Again, I don't have a problem with this, and I believe if you can buy a 30 dollar chinese radio, and get on the air without a call-sign, it's not much different doing the same on the internet with VoIP, but I want to know what other people think about the subject. Is this one of the reasons why Dave cameron banned AllStar from IRLP? Skyler KD0WHB
