                                                  Released: November 16, 2006

   By the District Director, San Diego District Office, Western Region,
   Enforcement Bureau:

    1. This is an Official Citation issued pursuant to Section 503(b)(5) of
       the Communications Act of 1934, as amended ("Act"), to Caught On Tape
       for violation of Section 302(b) of the Act and Section 2.803(a)(1) of
       the Commission's Rules.

    2. Investigation by the Enforcement Bureau's San Diego Office and reports
       from Federal Aviation Administration personnel revealed that on
       September 13, 2006, the source of harmful radio interference to a
       Tactical Air Navigation (TACAN) system in the 1070 MHz band was a
       transmitter used in a video surveillance system in the same frequency
       band. The transmitter was located at a residence at 913 Hemingway
       Drive, Corona, California. The transmitter was operating in the
       restricted band from 960 MHz to 1240 MHz in which no certification
       would be granted under the Commission's Rules. The owner of the
       residence advised they had purchased the transmitter from Caught On
       Tape.

    3. Section 302(b) of the Act states: "[1][Author ID1: at Wed Nov 15
       16:08:00 2006 ][[2][Author ID1: at Wed Nov 15 16:08:00 2006
       ]:"[[3][Author ID1: at Wed Nov 15 16:08:00 2006 ]n]o person shall
       manufacture, import, sell, offer for sale, or ship devices or home
       electronic equipment and systems, or use devices which fail to comply
       with regulations promulgated pursuant to this section." Section
       2.803(a)(1) of the Rules provides that "...no person shall sell or
       lease, or offer for sale or lease (including advertising for sale or
       lease), or import, ship or distribute for the purpose of selling or
       leasing or offering for sale or lease, any radio frequency device
       unless: (1) In the case of a device subject to certification, such
       device has been authorized by the Commission in accordance with the
       rules in this chapter and is properly identified and labeled...." Sale
       of this device by Caught On Tape violates both sections.

    4. Violations of the Act or the Commission's Rules may subject the
       violator to substantial monetary forfeitures, seizure of equipment
       through in rem forfeiture action, and criminal sanctions, including
       imprisonment.
