       for violation of Section 15.5(b) of the Commission's Rules.

    2. On January 18, 2007, the Enforcement Bureau's New York Office received
       a complaint from the Federal Aviation Administration that a signal
       coming from a private residence in Bronx, NY, was causing interference
       to its radio transmitters.

    3. On January 18, 2007, agents from the New York Office investigated the
       interference and determined by direction finding techniques that the
       source of the interfering signal was a private residence owned by
       Johanna Sacco. Specifically, agents determined that an Archer brand
       satellite amplifier located in her house was causing the interference.

       Sacco's operation of a Part 15 device at her residence in Bronx, NY on

       Administration facility, violated this section.

    5. 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.
