Due to many issues, REC had been behind on updating the Enforcement Actions (Dingers) database.  

The Dingers database has been now updated adding actions from May 2024 to April 31, 2025.  Dingers is back to being actively updated on a daily basis.

myLPFM fixes (logo image, RadioDNS & channel changes)

  • Read more about myLPFM fixes (logo image, RadioDNS & channel changes)

We are addressing the trouble reports received regarding myLPFM with the migration to System40.

We have fixed the issue where users were unable to upload images for RadioDNS.   

We have fixed the issue where users were unable to upload logos using the "upload logo" function.  Once uploaded, the logo may first show as either the previous one or a broken link.  Clicking to a different screen should show the newly uploaded logo.  This upload will also revise the logo in FCCdata and LPFM.ws 

Can an LPFM station receive Community Service Grants (CSG) from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting?

  • Read more about Can an LPFM station receive Community Service Grants (CSG) from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting?

The short answer is no.

The CSG criteria defines a "licensee" as an "entity with a valid, renewable license from the United States Government to operate a full-power, noncommercial, educational radio station".

In addition, the criteria for radio also requires an FM station to operate with an effective radiated power (ERP) of at least 100 watts.  There does not appear to be any language that takes into consideration a broadcast station which must operate less than 100 watts ERP due to height above average terrain.

FCCdata AM engineering fix, Radio History Project update

FCCdata - AM engineering fix

Fixed an issue where FCC AM records were showing in the engineering section (left side) but no facility details were shown when the item was clicked.  This was an issue associated with the recent retirement of CDBS. Records were not properly routing to the legacy BAPS data.   This involved making changes to the underlying eLMS AM application list table to remove the references to application IDs assigned by LMS but contain no engineering data.
