No, I don't think so. You can not discuss business dealings on your ham radio (say if your stock broker was a ham, you could not "make a trade" over the air) or use HAM RADIO for business purposes. Such as, using your base station to dispatch taxi's or stuff of that nature.
The office of Amateur Enforcement has nothing to do with transactions or promotions on the Internet. A good majority of the people selling stuff to hams are hams, you don't see them getting hauled off. If that were the case, and it is not, old Gordo West would be behind bars somewhere. I think you are a bit off base and at this point, this discussion is off topic...bring it back to the FT-60.

Hi all.
I tried to post the following bug report with Clint's group, but he
would not allow it.
I found a bug in the radio's operating system software that Yaseu will
want to fix (hopefully).
It is easy to duplicate, and the error handling is not providing for
this, and doing it causes the radio to shut down. Simply set all of
the channels in one of the memory banks to skip, and then press either
the up or down MHz keys to initiate scanning of that bank, and the
unit will shut down.
Yes I know that the question is going to be asked "Why would you want
to scan, when you have set all of the channels to skip?"... well it
happened by accident, and the error should be trapped. The user should
not be left wondering why the unit powered off.
You can duplicate this in any of the memory banks or in the "No
Bank" memory mode. The solution would be to display a message to the
user, or just beep.
I really like my radio, and I'm not complaining, just passing this
along for our collective knowledge, and maybe... just maybe it can be
corrected for future releases.
My unit's serial number 4K 05 0655
BTW I have a VX2R and when I try to duplicate the error on it, a
message is displayed "MS Error"
