    May the force be with you.

    This is not the illegal boat anchor CB station you were looking for.

    I mean droids.

    Down, I agree with outlaw. I would have said that I offered to to purchase filters. And they said no. So now they will have to buy their own. Because it's their equipment at fault. They need to buy a better tv.

    It looks just like the badge that Mike carriers in his wallet.

    Your right.

    I got a complaint years ago and I didn't even have a transmitter. Just had a wire antenna up at the time.

    FCC even came out to my house. They then went to the neighbor and told them what they found.

    I couldn't prove it but I believe it was because I quit mowing their lawn.

    Not true- investigated once and no cease and desist order as a result. If your station is in compliance- you're good.

    I think Bruce was just referring to who's at fault in the eyes of the people experiencing the interference. Even after the FCC investigates and determines that faulty Part 15 TV receivers, baby monitors, etc., are designed too loosely, and that the local licensed transmitter is clean, the complainers then decide that "da gummint guyz" don't know their jobs, either.
    When I started to put up my 140-ft tower for my 800 mHz LTR site, the homesteaders farther up the mountain mentioned that they were now having problems with their TV, and wanted me to know they were going to call the FCC field office in Anchorage. I offered to come take a look, confirmed that they had snow (this was 20 years ago), and had the couple come down and see my site. Once there, I was able to show them that all there was so far was the first 60 feet of guyed tower. Nothing else yet; the rest of the tower was still on the racks on the ground, and I didn't even have the power and phone run in yet.
    I gave them the number of the Engineer-in-Charge at Anchorage, gave them my card, and suggested they give her a call if they still had any questions.
    I never heard back.
    But I also realize it doesn't always turn out so cut-and-dried, either.
