Per Inside Radio:
"It’s not just pirate radio operators that are on the receiving end of warning letters from the Federal Communications Commission. A Hartford broadcaster, whose translator was operating at 2,142% the power it was licensed for, has been put on notice that it violated the rules."
They go on to say,
" New Britain, CT-licensed translator W269DE at 101.7 FM violated the rules when FCC field agents showed up for an inspection last October and November. They were there to inspect the four-tower array used by the primary station “Mega 910” WLAT and detected the translator’s 33-watt authorization was instead blasting out at 740 watts. That’s well above the 105% leeway the FCC gives a station."
