Default Advice for power company related rfi

I had a problem in San Antonio with an offending AM station. It just
took a call to three 50K AM staions (KMOX, WOAI, & KWKH) and complained
that I will now have to stop listening to them because of the
interference. 2 days later that problem was solved by the FCC citing
them for being off frequency to the tune of 25K fine. It will be solvd
if you do what I did. You can also file a complaint with the FCC, but
it may take a year to get results, but they will get the results for
you. You can also contact the ARRL compliance division and they will
also help. Greg

A few weeks ago I called Progress Energy to report the malfunctioning
streetlight in front of my house which cycles on and off all day and night
effectively eliminating any sw listening. They said they'd repair it in
three days, and when it hadn't been a couple of weeks later, I called again
and was told their records indicated its repair. I assured them that the
problem persisted, and after insuring they had the correct pole number, was
told another request would be submitted for the light's repair. Well, it's
been another week, and no luck. Any advice on reconciling this problem?
