Pat, innocent until proven guilty. Nothing happens until he appears before
a ALJ who rules on the guilty part.
Once found guilty, he can appeal to federal courts. If guilty, his case is
referred for collection, to whom I forget (maybe the U.S. Marshals), but he
will be hounded until he pays. The license renewal is a separate thing.

I find it all very entertaining. Indeed, the requirements of his class of
license do not keep the riffraff out.
After what he does with a part of the spectrum that I would like to use
but for one requirement, I hope they throw the book at him.
One FCC term I see is "apparent liability" If it is merely apparent and
the FCC does not accuse him of actual liability, why would he be motivated
to pay a dime?
And does the FCC have the authority and the power to actually "take" money
from him?
Just curious as to how these things play out.
