Who's responsible here?

[kalakoa]

Part 15 says "shall not interfere", so this is a prime facie violation of Federal law, right?

[bystander]

We seem to be in era of selective enforcement of federal law. Doubt FCC will do anything.

Did you notice what the Feds with Roger Christie and his wife.

This might be a line the protesters don't want to cross.

Big pain in the butt to file a complaint online but I did it.

Low power radio stations, unlicensed are allowed to broadcast a maximum of 200 feet.
Penalties include:

The Commission considers unauthorized broadcast operation to be a serious matter. Presently, the maximum penalty for operating an unlicensed or "pirate" broadcast station (one which is not permitted under Part 15 or is not a Carrier Current Station or Campus Radio Station) is set at $10,000 for a single violation or a single day of operation, up to a total maximum amount of $75,000.

Adjustments may be made upwards or downwards depending on the circumstances involved. Equipment used for an unauthorized operation may also be confiscated. There are also criminal penalties (fine and/or imprisonment) for "willfully and knowingly" operating a radio station without a license. DON'T DO IT!

They can just go back where they came from.

I suggest our remaining astronomers will retain employment in the present positions currently held. Protesters are not requesting shutting down the entire mauna...at this time

And we should consider what the protestors request because they are in charge of what exactly? Representing verified numbers of how many in which group of Native Hawaiians? They gained their position and the power which comes with it by what process? First come first served?

Correct: they are not requesting.
