But I don't like the way they're trying to stop the "pirate radio" movement. I'm all for letting people operate low-frequency radio stations...particularly if they're just neighborhood things. I want one...except I'd put it on the internet as well.

Once again we have a case where the FCC would be quite happy to leave "pirate" radio alone, except that some folks just can't get enough!!!

This is one of those deals where I just don't get people!!!

If you are smart enough to put together a low power radio station why aren't you smart enough to do it in such a way as to avoid crossing the regulators?

Think it's tough to broadcast and still stay below the radar? Then you aren't thinking!

I'm not about to post a how-to on pirate radio<G>... but it really isn't tough. And if you stay out of the way, you won't be bothered.

The stations that get bothered are the ones that trample all over other people's rights, and frankly, I think they get what they deserve!
