Torture Victim: Shut Down School of the Americas
SDSU Students Protest Repression on Campus
Pirate and FCC Activity in San Diego
San Diego has also recently been the site of some serious FCC enforcement involving other forms of unlicensed operation. Specifically, the use of point-to-point microwave radio communications between corporations in the San Diego area and "sister companies" located over the U.S.-Mexico border in Tijuana. The FCC has issued 11 Notices of Apparent Liability against 10 companies, seeking to collect a total of $86,000. The range in size of proposed fines is primarily based on whether or not a company held a pre-existing license to the sort of radio system they were operating. Most of the dinged companies actually market stuff, like desks, cabinetry, fabrics, and golf grips. They most likely use radio links to communicate sales and order data from the U.S. to production factories in Mexico. Two are transport concerns, tasked to the haulage of stuff cross-border. However, More Enterprises and Uniradio actually operate radio stations, licensed in Mexico but controlled across the border via unauthorized studio-to-transmitter links. This adds to San Diego's unique history of unorthodox radio piracy.

October 22, 2005 - No More Police Brutality!
From Police Shootings that result in death to grand jury investigations, San Diego's police state is out of control. Yesterday's Conference was attended by almost 100 people and addressed these tough issues. For nine days, Cherry Mason frantically looked for her daughter who was five months pregnant. Finally, she was notified her daughter had been shot and killed by a border agent who was participating illegally in a drug bust in a black neighborhood. She later discovered that her child; handcuffed, lying face down in the mud, had been shot in the back. [Complete Story: Angry Mothers Address CopWatch Conference] Past October 22 Events on SDIMC

A plan by Neo-Nazis to march through a neighborhood in northen Toledo Saturday October 15, incited a riot. The ISO (international socialist organziaton), ARA (anti-racist action) and various members of the community came to counter-demonstrate against the Nazi's which were comprised of members from the NSM (national socialist movement) and National Alliance. When the protesters arrived there were only about 8 nazis including Bill White spokesperson of the NSM. When police tried to escort the nazis out in the neighborhood they were pelted by rocks and a crowd of up to 600 residents gathered in protest. Tear gas was used to push back people but the police were unable to control the crowd as they were hit by rocks when they would try to advance.

Sadly, we at 106.9FM want to announce that we will be going off of the air temporarily, due to lack of funds. Remaining anonymous and raising funds has proven to be a very difficult task. We raised enough money at our last benefit to cover some of our operating costs, including utilities and internet access. We have also received a few generous donations which have helped us buy equipment for our new wattage upgrade. Unfortunately, we haven't gotten enough donations to continue our broadcast.
