Florida Hams Provide Communications Support During Hurricane Isaias
佛罗里达州业余无线电爱好者在“伊萨亚斯”飓风期间提供通信支持
Amateur radio operators from Florida’s Santa Rosa, Nassau, Lake, Pinellas, and Leon Counties played an important role in supporting emergency communications efforts during and following Hurricane Isaias, helping ensure that critical communication capabilities remained available throughout the storm.
来自佛罗里达州圣罗莎县、拿骚县、莱克县、皮内拉斯县和莱昂县的业余无线电操作员在“伊萨亚斯”飓风期间及过后，在支持应急通信工作中发挥了重要作用，确保了整个风暴期间关键通信能力的持续可用。
In Santa Rosa County, volunteer amateur radio operators staffed the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and the evacuation shelter at the Milton Community Center. These volunteers provided a communications link between the shelter and the EOC, relaying situational updates and maintaining readiness to support emergency communications should traditional systems become unavailable.
在圣罗莎县，业余无线电志愿者在应急行动中心 (EOC) 和米尔顿社区中心的疏散避难所值守。这些志愿者在避难所与应急行动中心之间建立了通信链路，负责转发情况更新，并随时准备在传统系统中断时提供应急通信支持。
Amateur radio operators across the state also supported auxiliary communications efforts, providing additional capabilities to maintain contact with the State Emergency Operations Center in Tallahassee if conventional communication networks experienced disruptions.
全州的业余无线电操作员还支持了辅助通信工作，在常规通信网络出现中断时，提供了与塔拉哈西州应急行动中心保持联系的额外能力。
“While traditional communications systems have become significantly more reliable over the years, amateur radio continues to serve as a dependable auxiliary communications resource,” said Arc Thames, W4CPD, Santa Rosa County Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) and Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) Program Manager. “When disaster strikes, our volunteers are trained, prepared, and ready to step in wherever we’re needed. It’s another layer of resiliency that helps protect our communities.”
“虽然传统通信系统多年来已变得更加可靠，但业余无线电仍然是可靠的辅助通信资源，”圣罗莎县社区应急响应小组 (CERT) 和业余无线电应急服务 (ARES) 项目经理 Arc Thames (W4CPD) 表示。“当灾难来临时，我们的志愿者训练有素、准备充分，随时准备在需要的地方介入。这是保护我们社区的另一层韧性。”
Thames also serves as the ARRL Northern Florida Section Emergency Coordinator and the Amateur Radio Liaison to the Florida Division of Emergency Management, supporting the coordination of amateur radio and auxiliary communications resources statewide.
Thames还担任ARRL北佛罗里达分部应急协调员以及佛罗里达州应急管理部门的业余无线电联络员，负责协调全州的业余无线电和辅助通信资源。
“During tropical weather events impacting Florida, our Auxiliary Communications team provides volunteer operators to monitor amateur radio communications at the State Emergency Operations Center in Tallahassee,” Thames explained. “This ensures that if someone is unable to reach emergency officials through traditional means, we have another way to receive and relay critical information. We always hope we’re not needed, but we’re glad to be there just in case when all else fails.” — Thanks to ARRL Northern Florida SEC Arc Thames, W4CPD, for the above
“在影响佛罗里达州的热带天气事件期间，我们的辅助通信团队会提供志愿者操作员，在塔拉哈西的州应急行动中心监控业余无线电通信，”Thames解释道。“这确保了如果有人无法通过传统方式联系到应急官员，我们还有另一种方式来接收和转发关键信息。我们总是希望自己派不上用场，但很高兴能在万一所有其他手段都失效时提供帮助。”——感谢ARRL北佛罗里达SEC Arc Thames (W4CPD) 提供以上信息。
eBay Restricts Listings of Radio Equipment, but Exempts Ham-Band-Only Gear
eBay限制无线电通信设备上架，但豁免仅限业余频段的设备
Online marketplace eBay has imposed new restrictions on listings of radio transmitting equipment in response to new FCC rules that took effect this week, but responded to ARRL that its new policy will not apply to gear that operates exclusively on amateur radio frequencies. The FCC’s rules are intended to use its equipment authorization program to protect against “national security threats to the communications supply chain” and cover a wide variety of products.
在线市场eBay针对本周生效的FCC新规，对无线电发射设备的上架实施了新限制，但向ARRL回应称，其新政策不适用于仅在业余无线电频段上运行的设备。FCC的规则旨在利用其设备授权计划来防范“对通信供应链的国家安全威胁”，并涵盖了多种产品。
In its Third Report and Order issued on July 23, 2026, the Commission makes clear that online marketplaces share in the legal responsibility to assure that unauthorized RF devices are not offered for sale on their platforms. The rules took effect on October 13. Moving forward, equipment subject to FCC authorization must have its FCC ID number submitted to the marketplace and posted with its listing. There are exemptions for posts already online, “small sellers,” and used equipment, but initial messages to sellers from eBay suggested that an FCC ID would be required in order to post a listing for any equipment that transmits RF energy.
在其2026年7月23日发布的《第三份报告与命令》中，委员会明确表示，在线市场负有共同的法律责任，以确保未经授权的射频设备不会在其平台上销售。该规则于10月13日生效。此后，受FCC授权约束的设备必须将其FCC ID号码提交给市场，并随商品信息发布。对于已在线的商品、 “小卖家”和二手设备有豁免权，但eBay最初发给卖家的信息显示，发布任何发射射频能量的设备都需要提供FCC ID。
In response to a request from ARRL for a clarification relating to amateur radio equipment that does not require FCC authorization, an eBay spokesperson provided the following statement:
针对ARRL关于无需FCC授权的业余无线电设备的澄清请求，eBay发言人发表了以下声明：
eBay allows the sale of devices capable of operating only on frequencies that the FCC has allocated for use by Amateur Radio Service licensees. As these devices do not require FCC equipment authorization, FCC IDs will not be required for these listings as an amateur licensee may use his or her license to operate such radios.However, two-way VHF/UHF radio equipment capable of operating outside of the amateur frequency bands cannot be imported, advertised, sold, or operated within the United States, including on eBay, without an FCC equipment certification.If eBay inadvertently takes action against listings for devices that don’t require FCC IDs and are otherwise authorized, the affected seller should inform eBay and we will assess whether to remove restrictions from the listing.
eBay允许销售仅能在FCC分配给业余无线电服务许可持有者使用的频段上运行的设备。由于这些设备不需要FCC设备授权，因此这些商品信息不需要FCC ID，因为业余执照持有者可以使用其执照操作此类无线电。然而，能够在业余频段之外运行的双向VHF/UHF无线电设备，若没有FCC设备认证，不得在美国境内（包括在eBay上）进口、广告宣传、销售或操作。如果eBay无意中对不需要FCC ID且已获得授权的设备采取了限制措施，受影响的卖家应通知eBay，我们将评估是否解除对该商品的限制。
It should be emphasized that the FCC did not change its underlying equipment authorization rules. Amateur radio equipment, except for commercial HF amplifiers, continues to not require FCC authorization.
需要强调的是，FCC并未改变其基础设备授权规则。除商用高频 (HF) 放大器外，业余无线电设备继续无需FCC授权。
