By the Resident Agent, Buffalo Office, Northeast Region,

  1.      This is a Notice of Violation ("Notice") issued 
     pursuant to Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules1 to 
     Auburn Broadcasting Inc., licensee of AM Station WSFW, 
     Seneca Falls, New York, and owner of antenna structure 
     1002612.

  2.      On August 18, 2005, an agent of the Commission's 
     Buffalo Office inspected antenna structure 1002612 located 
     on E. Bayard Extension, Seneca Falls, New York, and observed 
     the following violation:

       47 C.F.R. § 17.57: ``The owner of an antenna 
       structure for which an Antenna Structure

       .immediately notify the Commission using FCC Form 
       854 upon any change in structure height or change in 
       ownership information.''  At the time of the 
       inspection, the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration 
       Database showed that antenna structure 1002612 was 
       registered to BJR Broadcasting Corporation.  Auburn 
       Broadcasting, Inc. failed to notify the FCC of the 
       change in ownership when it acquired the antenna 
       structure from BJR Broadcasting Corporation in 2000.

     1934, as amended,2 and Section 1.89 of the Commission's 
     Rules, Auburn Broadcasting Inc. must submit a written 
     statement concerning this matter within twenty (20) days of 
     release of this Notice.  The response must fully explain 
     each violation, must contain a statement of the specific 
     action(s) taken to correct each violation and preclude 
     recurrence, and should include a time line for completion of 
     pending corrective action(s).  The response must be complete 
     in itself and signed by a principal or officer of Auburn 
     Broadcasting Inc.  All replies and documentation sent in 
     response to this Notice should be marked with the File No.
