Jay Thurber Show<p>Back in May, when I went to <a href="https://union.place/tags/Hamvention" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Hamvention</span></a> (the big radio convention outside of Dayton), two different guys told me "FCC agents" were flashing badges and questioning people in the flea market/swap area.</p><p>I thought they were mistaken, paranoid or exaggerating. But now, with feds from various three-letter agencies now showing up all over the place and acting tough ... I'm not so sure. </p><p><a href="https://union.place/tags/hamradio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hamradio</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/ice-agents-denied-entry-las-dodger-stadium-amid/story?id=123019550" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">abcnews.go.com/US/ice-agents-d</span><span class="invisible">enied-entry-las-dodger-stadium-amid/story?id=123019550</span></a></p>
