I'm all in favor of pirate radio but unless I'm missing something here the government always tries to shut it down, so I don't see the racial angle.
If you owned or listened to a station that gets interference due to pirate radio you wouldn’t be so thrilled with it. Yeah in places where there’s lots of space on the dial, maybe people can get away with it. But there are select few spots on the dial “open” in places like Boston—and the pirates go on. People with such things as XM Satellite Radio even need a spot on the dial to use so they can hear it in their car...and what if pirates take up all these spots?
Silly, EVERYTHING is about race when you're black and the gubbmint is shutting you down.
As a licensed Amateur Radio Operator studying for his GROL, gotta say I'm not in favor of pirate radio - especially in the AM and FM bands as consumers know them. These two bands are ordered the way they are for a reason: clarity of signal and ability for consumers to receive clear signals without having to deal with a "mess" of overlapping signals.
Yes, there's the hefty license fee's also however absent order AM and FM would literally be useless.
In the Amateur Radio Bands, we already have to deal with the idiots who come up from CB illegally using amateur radio transceivers that they purchased from unscrupulous dealers, other Hams or estate sales. They make a big mess of the bands with their rude behavior and acting like children disrupting other people's conversations. These ignorant childish CB'ers are "pirates" themselves so no, I'm not in favor of "pirate radio." I worked and studied hard to achieve my licenses and did things "the right way." Idiot CB'ers in the Ham radio bands just piss me off.
Hopefully most pirate radio stations would have more than one record, A Walk Through The Black Forest
