FCC enforcement actions in New York City
Seems like the Federal Communications Commission is in the midst of one of its annual sweeps of New York City-based pirate radio operators. Reports here and here (probably the same source, actually, a known anti-pirate crusading engineer) indicate that "Red Hot Radio" 102.3-FM in Brooklyn was shut down Nov. 6. Red Hot Radio's web stream, at least, is still on the air. On Nov. 2 the FCC definitely sent Sean Buckner a "Notice of Unlicensced Operation" for microcasting on 94.3-FM (or 90.1-FM, the notice lists both frequencies) in Brooklyn. Often the NYC FCC enforcement office, now led by District Director Daniel W. Noel, will take action against several local pirates within a week or two, usually once or twice a year.
