A Bronx Tale - FCC Finds Another Pirate Station

The FCC has issued a Notice of Illegal Pirate Radio Broadcasting to a property owner in the Bronx.  The FCC’s Enforcement Bureau notified the property owner that an unlicensed radio station was operating from the property and broadcasting on 89.3 FM.  The FCC’s notice stated:

“Accordingly, you are hereby notified and warned that the FCC may issue a fine of up to $2,453,218 if, following the response period set forth below, we determine that you have continued to permit any individual or entity to engage in pirate radio broadcasting from the property that you own or manage.”

NYSBA applauds the FCC’s continued efforts to eliminate illegal pirate stations from New York.  We especially want to thank the engineers and professionals in the Region 1 Field Office for their continued efforts to locate illegal pirate radio operations.
