Example Letter:

To the FCC, Department of Homeland Security, and KROM:

I am writing to request that the FCC permanently suspend the broadcast license of KROM in San Antonio and that federal agents be sent to shut down and padlock the station immediately.

It is a severe violation of FCC rules to broadcast the location of our national defenses and military. The broadcasts of KROM giving away the location of our Border Patrol agents are contrary to the goals and efforts of the US Border Patrol, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the Department of Homeland Security.

Please take immediate action to shut down this station and to make an example for other Spanish stations on our border to heed.

Since KROM belongs to Univision it should be treated as though it were a pilot program for the chain. If they get away with it there the format could spring up anywhere or everywhere they have a station.

I've contacted both Kevin Martin, FCC Commissioner and the Department of Homeland Security.

The FCC's phone number is 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322).

Ok, well I guess that takes care of Emergency Alert Item #2; now onto #3. :lol:

Emailed FCC and DHS :lol:

Please place the messages you've sent here for others to view.

OK. I wrote letters about the radio station in San Antonio. I used some of your brain and some of mine in that I copied and edited your letter by adding references to the border patrol being our first line of defense against the invasion of illegal immigrants. I also added that if these are American citizens they are guilty of a crime and if they aren't then ICE should be instructed to take steps to deport them after they shut down the station.

I sent to DHS and to the FCC.

I know from experience that it takes the FCC ages and ages to respond to complaints, though. I'm thinking DHS is going to be our only hope. I didn't bother to write to the station because I can't think of anything mean enough to say to them at this moment that won't sound threatening so I'll hold off until morning.

Here is an example that one of our supporters near the border sent in.

Dear Mr. Chairman

I am sure that you are aware that a radio station, KROM-FM, 92.9, in San Antonio,
Texas is regularly broadcasting information to illegal aliens, advising them how to
evade the Federal Border Patrol agents. How is this different than any gross
subversive act by terrorists? Why is this flagrant breech of our national security
condoned? It is unbelievable.

It would appear that this activity must be immediately ceased on an emergency order
by your agency.

I started out by posting what I had written but decided if EVERY ONE OF US posts EVERY SINGLE LETTER WE WRITE, it will take up 20 pages. I will post the ones from Emergency Items 2 and 3 if you want us to.

We need as many letters as we can get here to serve as examples for others that just view this area but do not post here.

W

Sir:

I am writing to request that the FCC immediately investigate the accuracy of reports that radio station KROM in Texas has broadcast the locations of our Border Patrol agents. Such broadcasts enable illegal aliens to avoid apprehension. If such reports are true, then permanently suspend the broadcast license of KROM in San Antonio and stop its operation immediately.

No radio station must be allowed to violate our laws regarding border security without penalty from your office.

Very interesting. In response to my letter to the FCC I got a message this morning requiring me to accept a 9 minute download on DSL!

I'm debating if this is a legitimate request or something not quite so "kosher."

Any comments?

I didn't get one from the FCC. I had better check my filter. It might be caught there. Will let you know if I DO have one.

My concern is about the fact that this supposed message from the FCC could be a bogus message and the download, although it seems to be coming from Adobe, is actually a virus. See, I have Adobe reader and therefore there should be no reason for them to be sending me a link to download it in order to read whatever the FCC sent? Does that make any sense? I am wondering if other people got a response from the FCC at all.

Several years ago, I wrote to the FCC to ask them why it is that ATT and Sprint were allowed to keep changing my phone service without my permission and what I could do to make them stop it. It took the FCC a full eleven months to answer my letter. That is another part of the reason why I am suspicious.

I just checked my filter and did NOT have any response from the FCC. I don't think I would download it either, JJ.

Junius,

Ask JP to take a look at that file for you before you proceed.

San Antonio is represented by four US representatives. The four are Henry Bonilla, Henry Cuellar, Charles Gonzalez, and Lamar Smith. Republicans Bonilla and Smith voted for HR 4437. Democrats Cuellar and Gonzalez voted against HR 4437.

As an American I am outraged that such a station who is putting hard working men and women of our border security in harms way by announcing their positions. In addition they are putting our Nation in danger by potentially allowing terrorists to come over our borders. In addition, aiding and abetting illegal aliens is a Federal crime. Any radio station taking part in these activities should not be allowed to broadcast and those taking part in this type of activity ought to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Junius,
Sounds like ti could be a virus. PM me the url and I'll take a look.

Sent the message below to DHS and to four contacts at FCC:

I have recently learned that Spanish-language KROM-FM 92.9 in San Antonio features a segment warning illegal aliens of the locations of border patrol agents. Broadcasting the locations of national defenses and military is a violation of FCC rules. In addition to the high level of human smuggling/illegal invasion at the USA/Mexico border, this station by its broadcast warnings is also aiding and abetting numerous drug traffickers and other criminals. Please shut down this radio station immediately.

This letter was sent to all three at FCC and to Homeland Security, I hate posting my letters but here goes.

Dear Mr. Chairman

It has come to my attention that a radio station, KROM-FM, 92.9, in San Antonio,
Texas is regularly broadcasting information to illegal aliens, advising them how to
evade the Federal Border Patrol agents and where they are located at any given time.

How is this different than any gross subversive act by terrorists?

Why is this flagrant breech of our national security
condoned?
I am sure that you know that aiding and abetting illegal aliens is a Federal crime

It would appear that this activity must be immediately ceased on an order
by your agency.

To do otherwise is anti American. and leaves us open to infiltration by terrorist also.

This same letter is being sent to the Office of Homeland Security.

Also to as many talk show hosts and media outlets that I can.

You could knock me over with a feather! CORNYN is helping someone? I thought Cornyn was actually a myth after all this time with him not responding to anything I have ever sent him.

I will send out a notice on this. Looks like we will have to revisit our efforts with the FCC and encourage everyone to send in written letters!

Welcome patbrunz To ALIPAC

And a thanks for the Info.

Thanks Pat. We plan to notify our national email alerts list about that. I guess we will all have to go back to work by sending letters to the FCC.

It sure took them a great deal of time before sending those notices.

I'm writing my letter of complaint with reference numbers in the morning if not tonight.
