    Does this mean he will no longer be operating?
    Just curious,

    Finally, it looks like justice will be done!

    The next step is their action to refuse to renew/dismiss his pending application for renewal, thus taking him off the air.

    I would suspect that will happen soon, if not today or tomorrow, since that is probably independent of whether he pays the fine or not, in a timely manner.  Why?  I'm certainly no expert, but I think a Forfeiture Order is a final action, thereby something that can be cited as a basis for them to dismiss his pending application.  I don't think that Notice of Apparent Liabilities are final actions or final decisions. Of course, Baxter has threatened to take any denials to the DC Court of Appeals.

    It will be interesting now to watch his next statements as Baxter is quite prolific.  His desire to broadcast, irrespective of the medium, is a bit insatiable.

    73,

    Interesting isn't it Lee? Baxter said Riley was "chicken and all bluff." Wrong again Glenn. I hope Baxter pays the fine soon. It would be nice if it went directly to the FCC to pay back some of the taxpayer money wasted on investigating Baxter over the past few years.

    I get my info on K1MAN [broken link removed]

    Perhaps he will sell his equipment to offset his fine....

    Then again, maybe he will cry like a baby and get it reduced...

    I completely agree with this. It's nice to have a propagandist peddling his junk taken off the air.

    Now let's do the same thing for W1AW.

    It took time, but the F.C.C. finaly took some action. It may not be enough, but it is a start. LETS SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN THE FUTURE:)

    I never had the "pleasure" of hearing one of his "broadcasts", but from everything I have read and heard, it sounds like we rid ourselves of just one more true "lid". Now, how many more are still out there?

    It's the end of an era. Who would have ever believed it. No more Night Call-In programs from K1MAN. Now, I'll have to start listening to the Nuts on the broadcast band.

    Well as Baxters buddy Walter Cronkite used to say:

    Guilty as charged Glenn, and thats the way it is......

    Its about time they did something. Now if they can just start clamping down on the hundreds of other idiots on the airwaves who dead key on nets, use profanity, and act like children.
