What's with the people (mostly in the Southeast US) on channel 6 with
huge
linears? How come the FCC hasn't thumped them? How do they constantly
broadcast with obvious illegal power and not get caught?

**** dude that has been going on since the late 1960's. Nothing new at
all. Did you just find out about that??? FCC doesn't give a f*ck about
that. They got other things to be concerned about. Don't you???

No, I didn't just find out about it. I'm just a bit amazed that a group
of fox hunting hams hasn't tracked down and reported the offenders. The
FCC doesn't do much in the way of active enforcement, but does answer
complaints. The FCC should give a f*ck about it - it's their frickin'
JOB. What do you think we're paying them for? And, it is a concern of
mine if an agency tasked with law enforcement only selectively enforces
the laws it's supposed to enforce. What if they only enforce gun laws
against white males from 18-45? In the DC sniper case, they all tried to
say it was a disgruntled southern white guy until they caught him - and
surprise, surprise, it was a northwestern black guy. The law should be
truly blind.

The FCC is a rule making agency - The Federal marshal service enforces for
the FCC!

You can see the FCC's enforcement bureau at http://www.fcc.gov/eb/
They issue fines - that's enforcement!

All about the marshalls really do is track down and/or transport fugitives
and prisoners and protect federal judges. That's according to their
website: http://www.usmarshals.gov
