  2.      On May 5, 2005, an  agent of the Commission's New  York 
     Office  inspected  radio  station  WBON,  located  at   3075 
     Veterans Memorial Highway, Ronkonkoma, New York and observed 
     the following violations:

a.        47  C.F.R.  §  73.3527(e)(3):   ``A  copy  of  any 
          service   contour   maps,   submitted   with   any 
          application tendered  for  filing  with  the  FCC, 
          together  with  any   other  information  in   the 
          application showing service  contours and/or  main 
          studio and  transmitter location  (State,  county, 
          city,  street   address,  or   other   identifying 
          information).  These documents  shall be  retained 
          for as  long  as they  reflect  current,  accurate 
          information regarding the station.''  The  station 
          contour map was missing from the public inspection 
          file.

b.        47  C.F.R.  §  73.1870(c)(3):   ``Review  of   the 
          station logs at least once each week to  determine 
          if required  entries  are  being  made  correctly.  
          Additionally, verification must  be made that  the 
          station has been operated as required by the rules 
          or the station authorization.  Upon completion  of 
          the review,  the chief  operator or  his  designee 
          must  date  and   sign  the   log,  initiate   any 
          corrective action  which  may  be  necessary,  and 
          advise the station licensee of any condition which 
          is repetitive.''   The  chief operator  failed  to 
          sign and date logs from February 1, 2005 to  April 
          30, 2005.
