                         NOTICE OF UNLICENSED OPERATION

   Case Number: EB-06-NY-226

   Document Number: W20073238003

   The New York Office received information that a land mobile radio station
   operating on 154.445 MHz in the Northern New Jersey area was causing
   interference to a FCC licensed station operating on 154.445 MHz. On
   November 10 and November 11, 2006, an agent from this office confirmed by
   direction finding techniques that the interference was caused by radio
   signals emanating from a transmitter operating in frequency range 154.400
   MHz to 154.800 MHz located at New York Methodist Hospital in Brooklyn, NY.
   The Commission's records show that no license was issued for operation of
   a private land mobile station on 154.400 MHz to 154.800 MHz at this
   location.

   Radio stations must be licensed by the FCC pursuant to 47 U.S.C. S 301.
   You are hereby warned that operation of radio transmitting equipment
   without a valid radio station authorization constitutes a violation of 47
   U.S.C. S 301 and could subject the owner of this illegal operation to
   severe penalties, including, but not limited to, substantial monetary
   fines, in rem arrest action against the offending radio equipment, and
   criminal sanctions including imprisonment. (see 47 U.S.C. SS 401, 501, 503
   and 510).

   UNLICENSED OPERATION OF THIS RADIO STATION MUST BE DISCONTINUED
   IMMEDIATELY.

   You have ten (10) days from the date of this notice to respond with any
   evidence that you have authority to operate granted by the FCC. Your
   response should be sent to the address in the letterhead and reference the
   listed case and document number. Under the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. S
   552a(e)(3), we are informing you that the Commission's staff will use all
   relevant material information before it to determine what, if any,
   enforcement action is required to ensure your compliance with FCC Rules.
   This will include any information that you disclose in your reply.
