[IRCA] WTOR-770 open carrier - where to complain?

["Mike Brooker" <aum108@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

For the past several months (perhaps for more than a year now) WTOR-770 has 
been leaving their carrier on all night after sign-off.  Their open carrier 
is seriously hammering WABC from my location in mid-town Toronto.  In 
particular, I like to listen to Imus in the morning before WTOR signs on, 
and can't hear the I-Man too well under the WTOR carrier.  I would like to 
file a complaint, but where or to whom?  The FCC likely will not respond to 
complaints from outside the U.S.  Industry Canada and the CRTC have no 
jurisdiction over WTOR even if they maintain an office in Toronto and 
virtually all of WTOR's programming is intended for Canadians.  Not much 
point in reporting the interference to WABC, as skywave listeners no longer 
count for anything to I-A clear channel blowtorches - they're just "radio 
nerds", beyond the range of potential advertising revenue.  And I doubt 
WTOR, or their parent company Birach Broadcasting, would give a rat's 
hindquarters, if they even know what an open carrier is.
