EB Goes After LPFM on EAS Source Monitoring

The FCC Enforcement Bureau issued a notice of violation Thursday to a California low-power FM station for violating rules on monitoring emergency alert system sources. Dream Ahead the Empowerment Initiative’s station KLDI-LP Lodi was found to be monitoring only one AM station for possible EAS alerts after the station’s EAS logs were reviewed, the notice said. “KLDI-LP was not monitoring two required EAS sources and was not monitoring the correct EAS sources.” Dream Ahead couldn’t be reached for comment.
