This is what happens when you don't do maintenance and try to bluff your way past the FCC Enforcement Bureau. Stroudsburg station WPLY is shut down and faces bankruptcy on many fronts.

The station, WPLY 960, has been off the air since June, with its tower system in shambles. It was running 6dB down from its nominal 1000 watt assigned power (i.e. 250 watts), and only using one of four towers, so its contours and nighttime coverage were a complete wreck.
