This morning, the House Subcommittee on Communications, Technology and the Internet passed the Local Community Radio Act (H.R. 1147) in a near unanimous 15 to 1 vote.
“All I can say is, it’s about time,” commented Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-CA), a co-sponsor of the bill.
The bipartisan bill gained the support of former LPFM doubters, including Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-FL), a former lead co-sponsor of anti-LPFM legislation, Rep. Greg Walden (R-OR), the only former broadcaster in Congress, and Rep. John Dingell (D-MI), who called for a study of LPFM interference in 2000.
H.R. 1147 is now poised to move to the full Commerce Committee, chaired by longtime LPFM supporter Rep. Waxman (D-CA).

There are, of course, many excellent engineers. These can usually be found by word-of-mouth or by examining the engineering sections of other applicants. That is how I eventually found an engineer who proved to be very good.
