The "in related news" story in this article is way more interesting, someone who apparently feels pretty strongly about running a pirate radio station.

- FCC is proposing $80,000 fine against a man in Oregon for operating an FM pirate radio station since 2018

- first complaint was in 2018, agents tracked it down, warned the man, and he gave them his transmitter

- second complaint in 2019, agents tracked it to the man's new home, they warned him again, he gave them his transmitter

- 2 stern warnings wasn't enough, because third complaint came in 2022, agents tracked it to the man's home again, the man's wife gave them 2 tranmitters

- the man then posted many videos on Facebook about his pirate radio station, and dared the FCC to lock him up. He then started another pirate radio station
