I don't know if there are no ill effects! I have heard countless admissions of "I jacked up the power" and "I enabled channel 14."

If I am not mistaken these are some of the "features" of DD!

Is there evidence that people are causing actual problems by doing either of those things? I know they could be bad in theory, but if there have been no problems or only mild problems, a wait and see approach seems more appropriate than trying to get in front of it with regulation.
