>>(A WCRB listener wrote the station): “I look forward to the BSO broadcasts on Saturday night, but since WCRB switched to 99.5...<<

So it looks like the pirate station was at 99.7 long before the WCRB station “changed” to 99.5 and it was the change to a frequency so near the pirate station that caused the problem.

Someone pointed out that the FCC was originally only authorized to allocate broadcast frequencies. Where did the “licensing” of everything under the sun come in. And just where do they suppose they’re authorized to regulate cable, satellite or the internet? Mission creep, anyone? Or rather, usurpation of power.

Get rid of the three letter agencies and go back to what the FedGov is “authorized” to do by the Constitution only. The FCC should only “coordinate” the use of frequencies. Keep their big, red gov’t. noses out of everything else.

Exactly, and it’s the frequency stuff they should focus on.
