The wheels turn slowly but prove once again - it's not nice to lie to the
FCC - EVER!
Declared expired the licenses of Stations DWJKQ(FM), Jackson, MI, and
DWAQQ(FM), Onsted, MI, and affiliated FM Translator Stations
Background. In Great Lakes Community Broadcasting, Inc., Memorandum Opinion
and Order,
24 FCC Rcd 8239 (MB 2009) ("Great Lakes Order"), we detailed an extensive
history of violations of
the Act and the Commission's Rules (the "Rules") by Great Lakes. In multiple
instances, Great Lakes
falsely claimed to have constructed NCE stations or FM translator stations
in accordance with FCC
construction permits, when in reality it either had failed to construct the
station at all or had constructed
the station at variance from the construction permit. The Great Lakes Order
cancelled four NCE
construction permits, two FM translator construction permits and three FM
translator licenses, while
repeatedly noting that the character issues presented by the false
certifications and misrepresentations by
Great Lakes, Dr. McCluskey and consulting engineer David Schaberg would be
addressed subsequently.
