            Structure Registration Number must be  displayed 
            in a  conspicuous place  so that  it is  readily 
            visible   near   the   base   of   the   antenna 
            structure.''   The antenna  registration  number 
            was not posted.

            antenna  structure...must conform  to the  FAA's 
            painting and lighting recommendations set  forth 
            on   the  structure's   determination  of   ``no 
            hazard''...''   The  ASR  for  structure  number

            bands of aviation orange and white, and  Chapter 
            5  requires red  obstruction  lighting.   During 
            the  inspection, the  agent observed  that  that 
            the antenna structure  did not conform to  these 
            specifications.  The structure was not  painted, 
            and had a white flashing beacon at the top.
