Don't count on radio station to look after problems

Editor: Re: MP taking action on radio towers file, letter to the editor, April 4 I cannot believe that MP Kerry-Lynne Findlay believes the radio station that misled the U.S. Federal Communications Commission about Tsawwassen's existence will be there 24/7 to look after our problems.

I just don't understand. If there is no problem with these radio towers, why are they moving them? The good people of Ferndale must have grown tired of looking at the red lights at night so KRPI decided to move them just to be good corporate citizens.

The only reason they're moving the towers is so they can do what the FCC would not allow them to do in Ferndale: increase the power to 50,000 watts around the clock.

I hope that in the future when the good citizens of Tsawwassen get up in the morning and try to listen to a little AM radio, and all they get are the overriding sounds that most of us will not understand, they will understand who stood by and let this happen.

KRPI may have been able to eliminate us from existence to the FCC, but our honourable member can't eliminate us in the next election.
