For the last year or longer there has been a rather high power illegal broadcaster in the Minneapolis/St. paul area on 97.9.There are only about 2 open slots in the Twin Cities so 97.9 is a very popular bootleg
frequency.Because my little FM transmitter (Crane) is set for 97.9 for listening to my IPOD in the car this station was so powerful when I was in the north down town Mpls. area it would cover up my signal for the car radio.After putting up with this for almost a year I decided to make a official complaint to the FCC.A week later I filled out the necessary paperwork on line and by the following Monday morning no more signal can be heard.I am surprised that they were able to broadcast for over a year before they were shut down.I would estimate their power to be at least 500 watts or more ERP.They covered the whole Twin Cities plus almost all of the suburbs.

Rather than potentially over
Rather than potentially over moderating ALL posters in the future (somewhat akin to throwing the baby out with the bathwater), why not just solve the entire problem and deal with the one(s) that are guilty of continuously posting in the manner you wish to avoid?

Moderating
It is not proposed to “over moderate” at all but rather to try to keep things more in line with the purpose of promoting and supporting part 15 broadcasting.
