Hollingsworth told David O. Castle, WA9KJI, of Evansville, Indiana, October
11 that the WTB referral was the result of "longstanding complaints against
the operation of your station" involving interference on HF and 2 meters. In
another case, Hollingsworth wrote William F. Crowell, W6WBJ (ex-N6AYJ), of
Diamond Springs, California, that his license renewal application has been
designated for hearing after a review of "numerous complaints filed against
the operation of your station" alleging deliberate interference.

Hearings are held in Washington, DC, before an administrative law judge, and
the applicants will have the burden of proof in showing they're still
qualified to be Amateur Radio licensees. Over the past several years, the
FCC has asked both licensees to respond to allegations of deliberate
interference on the amateur bands.
