As the enclosed indicates—I am a concert pianist, having been a scholarship student at the Juilliard with the late Olga Samaroff- Stokowsky, and also having spent a summer with Josef Hofmann. My radio show----- "BERNARD GABRIEL VIEWS THE MUSIC SCENE" has been on the air nearly 7 years now-.....- and I interview such musical figures as: YEHUDI MENUHIN, SIR RUDOLF BING, ERICA MORINI, LILI KRAUS, LEON BARZIN, THOMAS SCHERMAN, EARL WILD, WILLIAM MASSELOS, JOHN STEINWAY etc. etc. I mention the above-------because, I imagine Artur Rubinstein might be tempted to do an interview, since I am a professional musician —and might not just do the usual generalized type of chat with him. My broadcasts are heard by a great many radio stations coast to coast-------via "NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO", and are heard independently over WFUV in NYC every Monday night---------- 9-9:30PM.

No: 200832380008 ) Brooklyn, NY ) FRN: 0017428293 NOTICE OF APPARENT LIABILITY FOR FORFEITURE April 29, 2008 By the District Director, New York Office, Northeast Region, Enforcement Bureau: I. INTRODUCTION 1. In this Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture ("NAL"), we find that Jean Idalbert apparently willfully and repeatedly violated Section 301 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (“Act”),1 by operating an unlicensed radio transmitter on the frequency 90.9 MHz in Brooklyn, NY. We conclude, pursuant to Section 503(b) of Act,2 that Jean Idalbert is apparently liable for a forfeiture in the amount of ten thousand dollars ($10,000). II. BACKGROUND 2. On August 21, 2007, the FCC New York Office received a complaint from a listener about a possible illegal broadcast station operating on 90.9 MHz in Brooklyn, NY, which was causing interference to station WFUV in Bronx, NY, and station WKCR in New York, NY. 3. On August 27, 2007, agents from the Commission’s New York Field Office, using a mobile direction finding vehicle, monitored the frequency 90.9 MHz in Brooklyn, NY. The agents observed a radio broadcast on 90.9 MHz and identified the source of the transmissions as an FM broadcasting antenna on the roof of 1151 New York Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203. The agents took field strength measurements and determined that the signals being broadcast exceeded the limits for operation under Part 15 of the Commission’s Rules (“Rules”)3 and therefore required a license.

  • Nyc.Gov/Radio from the Radio New York Press Room MARCH, 19-25
    MARCH, 19-25, 2008 www.timeout.com Air raid A new kid comes to town as Seattle’s indie-loving KEXP moves onto city-controlled airwaves. By Colin St. John Certainly, the five boroughs support an ever-burgeoning (and hard-to-pin-down) independent music scene with one borough—guess which one!—the present international hub of hipster activity. With that in mind, city-owned public radio station WNYE 91.5 (a.k.a. Radio New York) is dumping its regular, talk-heavy lineup and partnering with Seattle-based station KEXP to present an indie music– oriented lineup. Based at the University of Washington since 1972, KEXP has long been a harbinger of musical trends. The station regularly plays unsigned—and unheard-of—artists: Kevin Cole, senior director of programming and host of the weekday afternoon show, observed in a recent conversation that the DJs have been playing Vampire Weekend’s demo for over a year. This commitment to breaking bands and discovering new music, as well as KEXP’s emphasis on Internet broadcasting (they were the first station in the country to offer uncompressed audio, a real-time playlist and full-song podcasting), is what led Mathew Tollin, the general manager of radio operations for the NYC Media Group, to reach out to Cole more than two years ago at a public-radio conference. Recalls Cole, “At the time I met Mathew, they were focusing on Channel 25 [the city’s public-affairs TV station], but were thinking of the radio SEATTLE SLEW John Richards of KEXP brings an avalanche of new music to the New York radio market.
