Hi Paula and all,

Oh my, somebody besides John MNY posted to TECH, what is the packet world 
coming to? (;->)

Oh that brought back memories, in my early packet years ('96 forward) one of 
my local repeaters on Staten Island (borough of Richmond, NY) picked up a 
jammer. It wasn't long before the control operators probably knowing already 
installed a fingerprinting board, all hardware initially and a BMF board at 
that rather like the old ROSE switch. It was common knowledge because they 
openly fingerprinted users and put our data in files, the idea is to compare 
the jammer's fingerprint to ours. Soon after they caught him, don't know what 
they did with him but knowing how they do business in New York it wasn't 
pretty.

                                                                ^  ^
