Article is weird. It does not seem to draw any correlation between the church-based transmitter and the dude who's surrendered multiple transmitters and acted defiant. Other than placing both stories in one article, that is.
Also, they don't give any hints as to the content of any of these pirate stations. Is it illegal to listen or report on that?
- RF_Enthusiast 4y agoInside Radio has a reputation of simply rewording FCC press releases. The two incidents are not related, the second one is just a regurgitated story as "filler". The FCC generally does not mention the content of the broadcast since it's not relevant to their interference investigation. And it's bad optics for the FCC to mention content as it may be misinterpreted as a first amendment issue. The station in Portland ran a Spanish-language Christian religion format. The station in Eastern Oregon ran a music mix interweaved with far-right talk (not to be confused with conservative talk).
