Field enforcement activity by the FCC in my field (broadcasting) is very low.
In my fight against modern traffic light system interference I was able to get a field engineer to visit - and he confirmed the signals were far beyond Part 15 and were indeed causing interference - but he was unwilling to take any action. He said you can't fight City Hall, and people should just tune to a stronger station if the noise bothers them. Sigh.

NOT many! The last time I checked, they had a grand total of TWO for the southeast United States. Out of Atlanta. Do you really think they are going to go out and get involved with this when they have all of the enforcement for maritime, amateur, CB, Broadcast radio and TV to worry about? Personally I doubt it . Although they did once visit my station when a neighbour complained of RFI. I was exonnerated!
