Description

Overdriven pirate radio station broadcasts on 90.3 (often during commuting hours but also weekends); the station plays reggae and variants. Fine. I like reggae well enough. But it is an overdriven signal that interferes with 90.5, the local NPR affiliate, to the point that the latter is unlistenable.

So, FCC, City Hall, Po-po, whatever: find the source of the signal and shut 'em down, please.

I'd just like to point out that it's amazing that nearly EVERY facet of life in New Haven seems to be characterized by some level of criminal activity. At last, my refuge on the commute home--the voice of reason while the crazy gangbanger kids encircle my car, weaving in and out of traffic like it's their job--has been invaded. (Only matter of time, I s'pose.)

How symptomatic of the social ills in this town.
