[GreenKeys] FCC scraps unused telegraph regulations

[Richard Knoppow]

    The statement that a broadcast station does not need a local studio 
was disproved some years ago during an emergency when the station could 
not be contacted by local authorities. I do not remember the details but 
think it happened on one of the mid north states. Broadcasting is pretty 
much completely deregulated which has not served the public interest in 
any way. Perhaps someone here remembers the story I am thinking of.
