There is little doubt Baxter has several contacts (leaks, informants,
etc.) inside the FCC. The commission continues to be powerless
to rectify its internal security problems. Commercial interests have
taken full advantage of FCC informants, and one can be certain
over the years that Baxter has developed several credible sources
of information inside the FCC. Just one case in point. Two
commission employees in the Northeast/DC areas would become
aware of imminent CB enforcement actions. They would email
others specific details about the imminent enforcement effort, and
worse yet, would discuss it on ham repeaters. Within hours, illegal
CB equipment was pulled from shelves, and local freeband
frequencies would go quiet. Legal CB channels, area ham
repeaters, and email would be full of specific details of the
pending enforcement actions. The same two commission employees
served as valuable sources of information for commercial
interests, allowing them lead time to prepare for FCC inspections.
Overheard a ARRL official once say he guessed there were dozens
of reliable sources of information inside the FCC.




Care to site a source for those statements?
