Latest reports on NYC microradio
Several reports from radio engineers posting to the New York Radio Message Board say that "pirate" radio activity in New York City is busier than ever. In Brooklyn, for instance, there are reports of FM stations on 91.9, 94.3, 95.1, 95.9, 96.5, 96.7, 97.5, 99.1, 99.3, 99.7, 99.9, 100.7, 101.5, 102.3, 103.1, 103.9, 104.7, 105.5, 106.1, 106.3, 107.1, and 107.9.
WHUT, the hip hop station on 91.9-FM evenings between 10 p.m. and midnight, is as strong as ever. A Hasidic pirate is allegedly using the 91.9 frequency (heard as far away as Westchester County) much of the rest of the week, and also airing on 1710-AM. Reportedly a station called "Red Hot Radio" is on 102.3, and it and another station on 95.1 are microcasting from E. 35th St. and Avenue H in Brooklyn.
Across the Hudson River from NYC, in Newark, New Jersey, there are reportedly pirates on 96.5 and 99.9.

This post that originated on the New York Radio Message Board was posted by a radio engineer here in New York City by the name Sean Savage.
This could be his alias name. The posting on that message board are malicious, negative, his attempts are to discredit micro broadcasters as "PIRATE"
radio operators of illegal activity whether this is true or not it remains to be seen.
As for Free103point9.org should use discretion and screen these post, as they are the attempts of Sean Savage's to expose pirate to others and the FCC and the locations of these radio stations, hoping that FCC officials would learn of their locations.
Re-printing the post by Sean Savage's post from the New York Message Board contradicts the mission statement made by Free103point9.org

Re-printing the post by Sean Savage from the New York Message Board contradicts the mission statement made by Free103point9.org and should be
protecting the identity of micro broadcasters, not helping exposing them and such information should be removed and deleted!
The New York Radio message board, always deletes postings that includes, street locations of pirate radio stations.
