It's not unknown for railfans to have possession of radios that are capible of transmitting on railroad frequencies. Unfortunately, from time to time railroads are plagues with unauthorized interferance on their radios. A few people can give railfans a bad name.
During the last year or so, one individual has been calling trains, blocking tower communications and generally causing problems with radio transmissions.
The LIRR, with the FCC has made one arrest in Nassau and it appears that several other offenders have been identified.
Please use your head. What someone may feel is harmless can be viewed as a major, intentional act of sabatoge. When all arrests are made and the information appears in the paper, lets hope that none of these people identify themselves as "railfans".
