Many -  even, I'd say, most - of the licenses involved seem to be at 
colleges and  high schools, where the license is often in the name of the 
board of  trustees or school board. Since they're usually not the ones 
actually  running the station, it's a good bet they're not paying very 
close  attention to the details about license renewal and such. It's 
probably a  good idea for anyone who's actually running such a station 
day to day (and  I know we have some college radio people here on the 
list) to pay  attention to renewal deadlines and public file issues just 
to make sure  your licensee isn't hit with a $1500 or $7000 penalty down 
the  road.

Thanks for the reply, Scott.  I've noticed that a good number of the  NAL's 
appear to be aimed at college and religious stations.  Your statement  about 
trustee and/or school boards does make sense, as most of them probably  don't 
have a clue that the licenses have to be renewed.  Now, I'm not any  kind of a 
broadcaster, just a little ol' ham radio operator, but even then I  inspect my 
license occasionally to make sure it is valid, not expiring/expired,  etc.
