By the District Director, Los Angeles Office, Western Region, 
Enforcement Bureau:

  1.      This is a Notice of Violation ("Notice") issued 
     pursuant to Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules,1 to 
     Citicasters Company, registered owner of antenna structure 
     #1028243.

  2.      On November 8, 2005, an agent of the Commission's Los 
     Angeles Office inspected antenna structure #1028243 located 
     at 2501 W Avenue I, Lancaster, California, and observed the 
     following violation(s):

  2.a.      47 C.F.R. § 17.23: Unless otherwise specified 
            by the Commission, each new or altered antenna 
            structure to be registered on or after January 
            1, 1996, must conform to the FAA's painting and 
            lighting recommendations set forth on the 
            structure's FAA determination of "no hazard," 
            as referenced in the relevant FAA Advisory 
            Circulars.  At the time of the inspection, the 
            agent observed that the antenna structure's top 
            strobe flash rate was slower than what was 
            required by the structure's antenna structure 
            registration.

     Rules, Citicasters Company, must submit a written statement 
     concerning this matter within 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 Citicasters Company.  
     All replies and documentation sent in response to this 
     Notice should be marked with the File No. and NOV No. 
     specified above, and mailed to the following address:
