Dear Sir:
The enclosed complaint before the Commission indicates that your company

and is an Amateur Radio Service frequency, not a business or public safety
frequency.
Please be advised that operation of radio transmitting equipment without a
license is a violation of Section 301 of the Communications Act of 1934,
as amended, 47 U.S.C. Section 301, and will subject you to fine or
imprisonment, as well as an in rem seizure of any non-certified radio
transmitting equipment, in cooperation with the United States Attorney for
your jurisdiction. Monetary forfeitures normally range from $7,500 to
$10,000.
Please contact your radio service technician in order to correct this
situation.
Sincerely,
W. Riley Hollingsworth
Special Counsel
