Default Galaxy Electronics Founder Leo Meyerson Asks FCC To Deny K1MAN...

I never even heard this Baxter dude, but I'm going to have to tune him
in because he's managed to rile people more than a little old pirate
radio station ever could.

Leo Myerson:


'I urge the FCC to deny the renewal of Glenn


Baxter's license.' Meyerson Letter


In the past ten years the FCC has received


numerous complaints regarding Glenn A.


Baxter.





Means nothing. Lot's of people get complaints. The FCC receives multiple
complaints on the same party(s) on a regular basis, commercial included.


The FCC is currently evaluating these


complaints.



..their job.

This page responds to the public's


interest in Baxter's character qualifications, or


lack thereof.




No, it responds to YOUR interest in Baxter.

Audio clips are best heard by saving them to


your desktop and playing with your favorite


audio program. Check this page frequently to

accuracy of information on this page is


guaranteed by the Center for Media Studies


Public Interest Research Group.



That makes it sound so official to the layman that one may believe such
a claim authenticates the personal opinions expressed and somehow
morphs such opinions into fact.



LATEST DEVELOPMENTS


Leo Meyerson (above right) has informed the


amateur community that he does not support


Glenn Baxter, IARN, AARA, or any of Baxter's


activities.





Did this Baxter guy actually say that?


In fact, Meyerson is incensed that


Baxter appears to be using his likeness and


image to promote his businesses.




That sounds very much like citing The Center for Media Studies to give
the false impression the personal opinions on that page are somehow
authenticated by the invocation of such Center. Hypocrisy.

Meyerson has sent a letter to the FCC urging


them not to renew Baxter's FCC license.


Baxter, whose FCC license has expired, has


been accused of sending unwanted


commercial email (spam) to promote his


businesses.




Accused is not the same as guilt.


In his unsolicited mailings, Baxter mentions


Myerson, and on his webpage, Baxter


features a photo of himself with Leo and his


wife Helen.



The writer above first claims Baxter was merely "accused" of sending
spam, then affirms Baxter's guilt by detailing the "unsolicited
mailings" which should have read "alleged unsolicited mailings."


Meyerson said, "Years ago, Baxter insisted on
posing with my wife and me for a picture. I


obliged him. I have no relationship with him


whatsoever. I have not seen him for years.


Please let the amateur community know I'm


not affiliated with him in any way. I believe he


is using my name in an attempt to gain


credibility and I strongly protest the use of my


name in this manner."


Leo Meyerson is an acknowledged pioneer in


the field of radio. Leo is the founder of World


Radio Laboratories and Galaxy Electronics.


Throughout the years Leo has been very


active in public service.



Which entails special treatment or the weighing of his opinion exactly
how?

A life member of the Quarter Century


Wireless Association, Leo served as a


National Director from 1977 to 1987. In 1991


he was named the QCWA Amateur Member


of the year and in 1994 he was inducted into


the QCWA Hall of Fame. Leo is also a life


member of the American Radio Relay League,


At first it appeared you were trying to build
Meyerson up, then you smear him by illustrating his close association
with the incompetents.

Society of Wireless Pioneers, and


International Mission Radio Association


among other associations. In 1980 Leo was


elected a fellow of the Radio Club of America,


one of the most prestigious radio clubs in


America.




I think I get your gist. The more radio-related clubs one belongs to,
the more valid their
opinion should be recognized and more weight given.

Leo Meyerson is the second radio icon to


denounce Glenn Baxter, ex-K1MAN. The first


was famous broadcaster Walter Cronkite, who
has publicly stated that he has experience


with Baxter's lack of ethics.





According to what has been posted here, I believe Baxter also publicly
commented on Cronkite and his lack of integrity regarding the entire
incident.


Cronkite also called on the FCC to deny


renewal of Baxter's amateur radio licenses.


(See Mr. Cronkite's letter regarding Baxter's


lack of ethics below).




The FCC gives no more creedence to Cronkite's letter than they do to
yours. All are treated equally and the FCC renders decisions independent
ofletters from the public.

There is widespread speculation that the FCC


will affirm Baxter's $21,000 fine and designate


his license for a renewal hearing in front of an


administrative law judge. The judge may deny


renewal to Baxter at that time.



There is also "widespread" speculation that Baxter will drag this out
and in the mean time, continue to operate.

An administrative law judge also has the


authority to order Baxter off the air during any


possible appeal process.


+ November 18, 2005. Leo Meyerson sends


the FCC a letter urging the Commission to


deny license renewal to Glenn Baxter.


+ November 13, 2005. Glenn Baxter,


discussing some of his heroes, whom he says


had no formal education, continues to rail


against FCC Enforcement, saying, "Riley is a


typical moron attorney.



Sounds extremely accurate in my opinion.

Riley IS smart and very dangerous, but he is


still a moron. And a cheap, corrupt politician."


I believe that and I'll tell you why. Riley does not enjoy being pinned
down and made to answer questions that require specific answers. He
would rather hedge and lie instead of admitting he doesn't have the
information one seeks or know the answer to one's question. Some of the
government types are arrogant pricks these days, forgetting where their
salary originates.


Baxter went on to say, "As a group, the


biggest impact on the modern world seems to


be among the no degree folks. Hitler and


Stalin did not have degrees." Baxter also


counts ex-ham Richard Whiten among his


good friends.




I see. Such opinions should be censored because.....because,,,,what?
They offend you?

Audio: Baxter's good friend and radio show


co-host, Rich Whiten. Use


caution! This is a disgustingly racist


monologue.



I can see where one could claim as much..

Baxter's widely distributed email


supports the theory that Baxter has nothing


but contempt for the FCC and its employees.



Most who are educated about the FCC, do have contempt for them. If
you're not ****ed off at the FCC, then you're not paying attention.


It is hard to imagine how an administrative law
judge reading such a message could possibly


interpret Baxter's statements as anything but


total rejection of the authority of the FCC and


its Special Counsel for Enforcement, Riley


Hollingsworth.




I see. Since when was he charged with "rejection" and when did it become
a crime? Never mind.
