[RFI] Answer from FCC - Pharmacy Sign noise.

[Kenneth G. Gordon]

Well, I am more than a little surprised: after writing out a formal complaint on 
the FCC's website, then calling our "local" (Seattle) Field Office this morning, 
I got a telephone call from that Field Office scarcely an hour later.

The young man is not only an EE, but also a ham.

He is the only one in the office (!), and has to cover all of northern Idaho, 
western Montana, and all of Washington, at least.

He was very chatty, very well-informed, very knowledgeable, and very willing 
to help.

I am very pleased. He asked me to send him exact details of the time that 
the Avista Utilities man worked with me to identify the source (which I can 
and will do asap) and he would not only make a telephone call, but also write 
a warning letter to the Supermarket/Pharmacy which is emitting the noise.

I am very pleased.

I thought the forum should know that working with the FCC IS a valuable and 
worthwhile resource. They are obviously very "under-manned" but they will 
help.
