limit political robocalls to one a day (or none)!! AND add an opt-out requirement so we can stop them for subsequent calls!
Have received 8 calls from one primary candidate in a 24 hr period -- he has also apparently shared my number with his political party -- 2 calls in a 24 hr period -- and with some issues canvassers -- 2 more calls in 24 hrs. That is 12 calls in 24 hours. This has been going on all week. I MUST have a way to opt out of these calls -- all of them. This is ABUSE. If there is no way to stop the calls, then make them buy an FCC license for each call so cost will… more

The FCC should remember that the 'Airwaves' belong to the people and they are caretakers of public property and not partners of big business
To many times corporate needs are placed above whats good for the American Public.

Your website is abominable.
I am not familiar with FCC jargon. The only part that makes sense is this complaint board. All I want to do is to find out why my local radio station went dead. There were no announcements, no reasons given, just a lot of gossip in town. All I could find easily is that there was an ammendment to the renewal late in January, but no link or suggestion of a next step or any way to find out what is going on. Would you be so kind as to educate us novices with everyday language in addition to your… more

Who sold my information to the auto-dialer bots?
The most empowering and valuable information the FCC can provide consumers, like myself, is what businesses are supplying these guys with our personal details (name, cellphone numbers, etc).
After the FCC fines a company or shuts down a phone number, it should publish facts about the company that owns the phone number and businesses associated with selling information to them.
ie; If it's my "UnionChase MaestroKard" causing harassing phone calls, that information could empower consumers to stop future business activity with them.2 votes -

When down loading information from the FCC Database using the 'download query tool'
When down loading information from the FCC Database using the 'download query tool' the information is very difficult to sift through when downloading large amounts of data. Data is compiled into several different tables in the same text file (same sheet when imported into excel) There are no data labels and the information across tables do not match. It would be helpful if there was at least an explanation for this, but more useful would be the ability to match, for example, a tower owner with the long/lat co ordinance across data tables. Also, it would be nice to know… more

Expand frequency coverage in Spectrum Dashboard API.
The current Spectrum Dashboard API only covers 225 MHz to 3.7 GHz. It would be nice if it covered the 3 kHz to 300 GHz that is distributed in the OET Spectrum Table (which is currently only distributed in a non-machine readable formats).

Restore public access to Media Bureau CDBS. What you've done is seriously wrong and backward.
Cutting off public access to searching the CDBS data is just ******. I cannot understand why you have done this.
