Problem is that the worse offenders either will never read "the list" or be made aware that they're on it...
 
...or proudly proclaim their presence on it as a Good Thing and a real honor (for their ego, at least)!

Pete,

I've taken to recording this whenever I hear it (even mid-contest). I don't
quite think it's my place to contact these stations and say "listen to
this-", but maybe in the future we will have an outlet for constructively -
and anonymously - improving operating practices.
