REC has made a major enhancement to FCCdata to preserve the public notice comments of older broadcast applications. Clicking on the blue triangle to the left of the file number will show the CDBS Public Notice comments which may have significant history regarding station ownership and engineering, especially for records from before 1980.

FCC LMS has not responded in the past 5 minutes. Links to FCC applications may not work. FM facility updates from eLMS will be delayed.
