No, the FCC does not need a warrant to inspect your station.

All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
Correct. The "warrant" in this case is the license by rule, or by process.Originally Posted by KJ6BSO
The real question is why do they monitor today and inspect tomorrow?
.
Back in the early 70's most stations used "handles" and were either unlicensed or didn't identify. That is how they operated when they "cleaned up" the band one summer, 1974 I think). They tracked down just abiut every CB'er in Westchester and then paid visits to each one when they were done. In the following weeks the 11 meter band was pretty much silent in Westchester but The Bronx was still extremely active Seems the FCC was not too anxious to go into the Bronx. I can't say I blame them. The Bronx was pretty rough in those days and knocking on peoples doors and insiting on coming into the premisis was a good way to get your neck broken.

I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
