Hi Jerry,

Don't feel bad. My wife and I booked a 15 day Princess cruise out of San
Francisco to Hawaii a couple of months ago. The itinerary had 4 sea days
going and 4 coming back which would be great days for operating time. So
three months before the cruise I started the permitting process. Got a
permit from Bermuda to operate aboard in a few weeks and then after
several weeks, after submitting the requested documentation (my license
and authorization from Bermuda) received an email authorization from
Princess Cruises permitting operation from the balcony ONLY.  But I was
to check in with the electronics officer once on aboard before
operating. So after loading up the gear and my nifty HF and 145/435 MHz
balcony antennas in a separate carry-on along with the authorization
paperwork, off we went. Cleared boarding customs without a problem. The
next day I requested customer service to put me in touch with the
electronics officer which was done. I showed him the paperwork from
Princess along with the licenses and he said he would run it by the
Captain. Hours later, customer service calls the room to tell that the
Captain was denying permission to operate on his ship.

Well, what made matters worse after being resigned to just receiving and
after setting up the HF antenna and listening, the bands were usually
hopping. I guess that big salty sea really helps antennas.

So I guess we can cross off Princess as being Amateur Radio friendly.

I do have the email address for the chap in their Santa Clarita office
who is/was responsible for Amateur operations if you want to get a
further read on the matter. To be sure, he got a not too friendly email
from me when we returned. It went unanswered.

Hi Mac,

I think something like that would not quite work, visiting several ports
for a day each it would still wind up being taken to the ship or perhaps
I could send one to each port.  The latter is a little out of my budget,
though!    :-)
If it could be understood that I won't operate or even carry it on the
ship, just in our backpack when we leave the ship to explore each port...
One of these crossed my mind, I caught some of their Hamvention meeting
Saturday night at the BBQ joint we ate at:
https://www.ecwid.com/store/store10195853/RFinder-Android-Radio-M1DU-432mhz-UH
F-DMR-FM-Hardened-device-p73999500
It's really a cell phone, not a ham radio, right?      ;-)

Now THAT'S a booger too, Bill.  While hams are probably not even a
percent of Princess' whole business it would be nice if they would have
an open mind/ear about it, unless someone(s) didn't follow rules and
messed it up for the rest of us.  But those things never happen...

Anyway I'll sure make a note of it on our customer satisfaction survey.

I suppose that the person I was ultimately dealing with, "Ronnie", is
the guy you are referring to?  While we never spoke directly, he is the
one who received my requests and from which I expected the
fax/response.  And who dropped the bomb today.  Given what the agent
said that he told her in the email, I think he's quite happy being a
[sorry].

Maybe I would be slightly less bummed if I hadn't bought a new HT for
the trip, like you with your station setup, it's more of a kick in the
butt when you've invested so much in what turns out to be a waste of
time.  Do you recall if the prohibited items included ham radio when you
sailed?  I just wonder when that got on the list...

Hi
A short video about Amsat operation in Xenia Hamvention 2017.
The most interestanting is the rotor system which works nice.

On Sunday, 28 May , XYL and I depart Seattle to cruise the Inside Passage
aboard the Emerald Princess.

Ports include Ketchikan (CO45) on 30 May, Juneau (CO28) on 31 May and
Skagway (CO27) on 1 June.  There's also a brief stop in
Victoria, B.C., on 3 June.

With a TH-D72A and Arrow, I plan to operate available SO-50/AO-85 (and
LilacSat-2, if it's on) passes from the AK ports of
call as AA5PK/KL7.

Since Princess Cruise Line has recently changed its onboard operating
policy, AA5PK/VP9/MM operations are now unlikely.

I'll try to advise via Twitter @xxxxxx depending on Internet access.

All contacts will be uploaded to LoTW after 6 June with call sign(s) as
noted above.  Hardcopy QSLs upon email request.
