Television station in Kentucky, United States
W10BM (channel 10) was a low power television station in Morehead, Kentucky , United States, that later operated unlicensed and was fined as a pirate station by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
Licensed broadcast term [ edit ]
The FCC granted an amended construction permit for W10BM by December 4, 1987,[2] [3] [4] ft ) above ground level , broadcasting on VHF channel 10 with a city of license of Morehead, Kentucky , and licensee named as Vearl Pennington at a post office box in Mount Sterling, Kentucky .[5]
On April 27, 2004, the FCC sent the Mount Sterling post office box a letter saying that W10BM at Morehead, as well as W06BC at Mount Sterling, would be cancelled unless the FCC received a response.[6] [7]
Pirate broadcasts and fines [ edit ]
On May 12, 2017, the FCC fined the station's operators, Vearl Pennington and Michael Williamson, $144,344 for continuing to operate W10BM despite the cancellation of the license.[8] [9]
The channel remained on the air through carriage via local Spectrum systems, until it was dropped on February 23, 2022.[10]
