But, please......PLEASE, if you are experiencing problems with a solar
power home installation, document it carefully and take it to the ARRL, NOT
FCC.  FCC will ignore your problem submission.  They listen, so far, to
ARRL.

One of hundreds, of not thousands, of radio clubs in the US, but not from an affected user licensed by them, in response to a violation of their own rules, that in theory, only they enforce?

Sounds legit...

Anyone have the link that was going around a few years ago where RFI issues were filed directly with the FCC for investigation, and enforcement? The process worked like this, as discussed extensively in this forum:

"you fill out an online complaint form with the FCC, the offender is "red-flagged" in the computers as being a violator, and sent a notice to resolve the issue. They are sent another letter in a couple of weeks or a month or so asking both you and them how it was resolved and if done to your satisfaction. If not, they give them a set time to resolve it, then ask again, if not, maybe a couple more, if not resolved then they start to send the threatening letters, quoting all sorts of violations of Federal law, fines per incident per day, et cetera and inform them to resolve it again and so forth. Once they are flagged, it doesn't stop until YOU inform the feds it's now fixed. Since it's computerized, it's automated and perpetual and doesn't stop until resolved and the "red flag" is removed from their name."

I don't imagine many people want to get caught up in a scenario like the movie "Brazil", and may go out of their way to resolve the issue, on the other hand, they can ignore the process, and see how it plays out.

This looks like the current link, has a drop-down for interference:
