Although I am not a fan of linking, what you quoted is not the written rule.  That’s the FCC interpretation of the written rules.  It does reference the actual rules it interprets (95.1733 and 95.1749) however. 

 

 

^^^  This!  Exactly this!

 

There is nothing in the rules that explains 'why' the rule is what it is.  There are several conflicting parts and sub-parts, that I have pointed out in the past, that support that 'linking' as a whole is not prohibited.  Only a specific method is prohibited.  Whatever is not expressly prohibited is allowed.

 

The truth is, I may retire this year.  If I do, my time would be freed up enough to stand-up a linked repeater network and then wait to see if the FCC is up to a lively debate in Federal court.  I don't know if I will, but the opportunity would exist and lately I am feeling kinda spicy about government overreach.

 

Don't get me wrong.  I have no personal animosity toward anyone in the FCC for simply trying to do their job and I have no intent on purposefully and intentionally violating any federal laws or rules... but we need a court case to settle the debate.  All I have seen from everyone, including the FCC staff, is conjecture and opinion based on something that is NOT written, implicitly nor implied.

No debate.... 45 all the way.  In a 1911.  Accept no substitute

 

We can agree to agree on this one.  Even my wife prefers my .45 to a 9 or a .380. (note - own all 3)  She comes from a family of Moose hunters so very proficient with small arms.

"some people" are so funny, all trying to prove who's smarter over something that does not matter in any way - The FCC doesn't even care.

"some people" should bicker over something that actually matters.

 

Bickering implies that a counter position is taken because I care about the other persons opinion and how it reflects on me and my initial position.... which definitely is not the case. LoL
