I'm up all night doing software updates.... looking for a diversion.... so
if a Pirate station were to broadcast a strong signal from a large ship just
outside the international waters boundry into the mainland, would the FCC be
able to do anything about that? And if so, who would enforce the law? Even
the coast guard cannot enforce US law, only international law, on the open
seas. Is this a possible loop hole? Also, the signal would travel well as
there is no obsticles and most coastal cities are just above sea level with
no mountains to block the signal?

Diving back into software hell :\
