There's a few in there like "B87.7" or "Real Deal FM" that sound like they're trying to be Wolfman Jack. Most of them are "Realty" or "Management LLC" that sound like someone dialed up the power a little too high on their real estate talking house things or their parking instructions.

It looks like churches (parking lot gatherings?) and holiday displays (typical in a lot of neighborhoods).
I dont know why the churches just don't stream to their people, even in a parking lot. Most people have phones and tablets. Setup a Zoom conference or something instead of using FM radio. |

There used to be a Pirate latino station here in Cleveland. They would bounce around from one attic to the next with their equipment, and play salsa and other Latino stuff. They would get on air on the lower 88-89mHz bands, down by the college radio stations.

The FCC going after pirate radio isn't nothing new. A couple years ago I read a good article about some pirate radio stations in the west and their run ins and closings over the years.

Quote HistoryQuoted: The Left wants to control all of the message. This is definitely prelude stuff to a not very happy future. They are going for it. Yep. Most of it is just people doing it for the fun of it. We had one around here that would pop up at odd hours, play some alternative music then disappear for a day or two. Never any talking or advertisements, just somebody wanting to play their preferred music and they were on a frequency that wasn't in use. I guess they just quit doing it as I haven't thought of it in a couple of years and don't recall ever hearing about anyone getting busted. I actually thought about doing a low power version for our FOB overseas since the only thing we could get was goat calling and local music. The equipment to hook up to your computer wasn't that expensive at the time. Kinda wish I had. |

So there's this, the Parler shutdown, ARFCOM/GoDaddy thing, the push to shutdown Telegram, the "reminder" from the FCC about ham radios, and open discussion on CNN that cable companies shouldn't "be bringing them into tens of millions of homes" when talking about OAN and Newsmax.

The Left intends to go full Stalin, they see this as their opportunity to crush all political dissent and gain perpetual rule. Personally I think they played their hand 10-20 years too soon due to Trump derangement syndrome and their fringe groups going full retard. If I'm right then forcing them to launch into a full scale takeover before they were ready might turn out to be the best thing Trump accomplished.

Do pirate radio stations play sea chanties (see the other sea chanty thread)???
And does the FCC's enforcement bureau have its own SWAT teams? If not, they're missing out on that bit of fed JBT glamour... |

A lot of churches have gone to drive-in services with the Covid crap. Part of the problem is that 99% of the FM transmitters on Amazon are not FCC certified and put out many times the power allowed for a part 15 transmitter. Bezos should be billed for the fines generated by these devices. |

Quoted: Pirate Action Pirate radio has existed since the early days of radio, but advances in technology have allowed for the creation of a new breed of small, highly-mobile pirate radio stations. Unlicensed broadcasters can pose a hazard to the community by interfering with public safety frequencies. In addition, pirate stations compete unfairly with licensed broadcasters for advertising dollars. Such pirate operators pose a significant challenge to track and shut down, but the Enforcement Bureau’s Field offices work around the clock, using the latest technology, to accomplish this mission. This map tracks the Enforcement Bureau’s efforts to shut down such stations and take aggressive enforcement action against the operators and those who assist them. It consists of Bureau or Commission orders related to pirate radio operations, but does not include unpublished informal warnings, which may be issued in appropriate circumstances. https://www.fcc.gov/reports-research/maps/fcc-enforcement-actions-against-pirate-radio-location/ |

In communist Poland a buddy of mine used to drive around the city and play recorded pro Solidarity messages on a mobile transmitter in an effort to avoid detection, it was very short range but it no doubt had a morale boosting effect during martial law.
I'm sure it was part of the overall 'Radio Solidarity' efforts, I'll have to ask him. https://www.nytimes.com/1982/04/13/world/radio-solidarity-on-the-air-defies-polish-regime.html https://www.upi.com/Archives/1982/07/11/Arrested-Radio-Solidarity-staff-faces-up-to-10-years-in-jail/1498395208000/ |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Some of the 87.7 ones are legit. They are using an analog TV license to broadcast audio and usually have some kind of fixed or oddball video running. Their licenses all expire in July IIRC. There is a popular channel in Chicago run by MeTV. They are trying to get an FCC authorization to allow them to maintain the analog audio channel while switch to digital for TV. But I can see how that spot would be attractive to some form or another of an illegal broadcast in a market where there's no licensed station there.
