[BC] Gaming the FCC process

Dana,
 
I am afraid what you just described applies to everything that involves the federal government. After speaking to an FCC Field Engineer he described the FCC's decisions as purely political and the Field Offices cannot do anything one their own unless ordered to by Washington.
 
It isn't the FCC from long ago anymore.
