I got a kick out of this video on you-tube. It’s a little drawn out, but couldn’t help but watch it all the way through.. I actually watched it again a couple hours later. I would have liked to have given him a hand:

He’s has a total of 8 videos there.. he has couple UFO’s that he talked about while he filmed it.
There’s also one of his weekly Chicago weather forcast.
I’m glad there’s only 8 video’s, I was starting to get hooked!
Recruit Him
Rich Powers:
I won’t be able to watch these videos till later, but I know they’ll be good.
See if you can recruit the guy into part15.us, we’d have another interesting member and he would find a group of “peers.”
I already have… I dropped
I already have… I dropped him a note on his myspace page to join here
His Part 15 videos look good!
I looked at his Part 15 videos and
I think they are cool. I believe he
has quite a lot of technical knowledge.
It appeared to me that he is transmitting
on 600 kHz, but I could be wrong. It seems
to me that his range was good for that
frequency with his current set-up. I think
if he went to the top of the AM band his
range would improve, but he may have
another reason for being on 600. Maybe
he can’t find a clearer channel in his area.

One More Comment
I am not registered to get on YouTube
and make comments, but I did look
at some of them.
There are a few commenters that are
suggesting Pirate radio type transmissions
instead of Part 15.
However, I think this guy knows a lot, and
I believe he will steer clear of the Pirate approach.

Act now…
Someone should tell him that he needs to get a board put together, and apply for an LPFM license in the next window!
Or, he may already even be involved with a non-profit, eligible to do that…
