Patrolling the Ether

I catch this series whenever an episode comes on and I was rather disappointed in this one. From the early part of the film when the mother says, "Son this man from the FCC wants to talk to you" I knew it was going to be lame. As having been an amateur radio operator and a professional broadcaster, I can tell you that people from the FCC don't come by to talk sports with you. Such a visit would have been as welcome as "Hey Charlie, this motorcycle cop who has been following you for three miles wants to talk to you." It doesn't make sense.

And someone who was 16 in 1940 is a Federal agent in 1944? While I can't say for sure, my guess is that the kid would have had to have had an engineering degree to work for the FCC. The film was interesting, but with too many gaps in logic to make it really enjoyable.
