Short story......

6.
The complaint alleged that, on July 17 and 18, 2021, the individual had interrupted fire suppression activities and had begun advising the firefighters and aircraft personnel of hazards at a radio repeater site located at Elk Butte. Id.
The complaint also stated that the individual had identified himself on the radio as “comm tech” and his location as the Elk River airstrip. Id.
On the afternoon of July 18, the fire operations section chief left the scene of the fire and drove to the airstrip at Elk River, where he identified Frawley as “comm tech,” confirmed that it was Frawley who had been transmitting on the government frequency, and instructed him to cease operations on the frequency...........

This did not play out well for him.
