Thanks everyone. This went better than Gainesville GA (FKV).
The airport manager of Farrington Airport (the real owner of FIO) was very
cordial on the phone just now.
This is a non-FAA facility, so the first step is always dealing with the
airport directly.
The airport manager said he "was aware that beacon has been a problem in
the past, but they fixed it a few months ago".
I told him I could always hear it, even after they "fixed it", and that it
was now worse than ever. He said he was pulling the plug on it, and would
leave it off until it gets repaired.
They should all be this easy.
