What a fool. I guess he figured he wouldn't get caught ? He got caught red handed and he had to admit it. he couldn't even lie his way out of it. So now the tool is out $7000.00 for his arrogance and stupidity. In any event it's good that the FCC is on the job.

For the $7000 fine he has to pay he could have bought himself a brand new state of the art radio.
