		+
		+	Agents of the FCC claimed to have monitored transmission on 3/29/1990 around 1915 local time, and a few days later paid a visit to the purported operator. At that time, the Voice of Oz had been rated #6 on the FCC's 10 Most Wanted list, according to reports sent to the operator.
		+
		+	The accused operator was issued a $1000.00 NAL, to which he responded that this arbitrary assessment was ludicrously overstated, and that the fine should not be more than $100.00. A personal check in the amount of $50.00 marked "Paid in Full" was submitted to the local Field Office. This check was subsequently returned, and a discounted fine of $500.00 was unilaterally returned to $1000.00.
