If I had to take an educated guess, I'd say 50 watts.
The station mentioned in the FCC O&R is not the Jewish station but another
of several other pirates in Brooklyn. By the way, there is a Christian
church-based pirate on 1630 with transmitters in Yonkers and Harlem that has
been on for months and months 24/7 without challenge. Not only do they sell
ads, they give an on-air phone number frequently to reach their sales staff.
These stations wouldn't continue in the days of Al Zimny and Dave Popkin!
(old-time FCC inspectors that used to chase pirates like Al Wiener).

I've been checking 1710 for some time, after noting a log of a "pirate" station there. 2/22 @ 2029-2100 noted UNID vocal mx, and then to a male in English. Only bits and pieces, with mentions of "Rabbi," "God said," "union voters," and something about a meeting "Saturday" and either "at 8" or "the 8th." Loops N/NE from my location in Jacksonville, NC.
Checked GOOGLE + Glenn Hauser's site, and a bit of information found, including a link to a FCC document on the "NOTICE OF APPARENT LIABILITY FOR FORFEITURE": http://www.fcc.gov/eb/FieldNotices/2003/DOC-237849A1.html
Wonder what power they're using?
