Default Gang Radio

I had heard a bit about this bust last week on WLS, Chicago:

** U S A. The Gang format --- Here's an innovative format: gang radio,
featuring warnings for when the police are on the way. That was the
programming on a pirate station in CHICAGO run by the BLACK DISCIPLES
street gang that was busted up by CHICAGO POLICE in raids on WEDNESDAY
(5/12). As part of the raid, which netted over $300,000 in cash, 11
guns, bulletproof vests, and jewelry, the police and FCC agents shut
down a pirate station operating on 104.7 FM from a building owned by
reputed DISCIPLES leader MARVEL THOMPSON at 6723-29 S. Parnell in
CHICAGO (from http://www.allaccess.com via Brock Whaley, DXLD)

Obviously, it was of no value to itself. G
