    1. This is a Notice of Violation ("Notice") issued pursuant to Section
       1.89 of the Commission's Rules, to Keith T. Gaza, licensee of maritime
       radio station HA8124C.

    2. On February 7, 2008, an agent of the Commission's Honolulu Office
       inspected ship radio station HA8124C, trailered in front of a
       residence in Honolulu, Hawaii, and observed the following violation:

   47 C.F.R. S: 80.89(a): "Stations must not engage in superfluous
   radiocommunication." Transmissions by EPIRBs are intended to be actuated
   manually or automatically and operated automatically as part of a ship or
   a survival craft station as a locating aid for survival purposes. At the
   time of the inspection, the agent found that the ACR EPIRB had been
   inadvertently activated.

   47 C.F.R. S: 80.1053: "Operation of Class A EPIRB stations shall be
   prohibited after December 31, 2006." The ACR EPIRB that was falsely
   activated may not be used on commercial or recreational watercraft, as it
   is a Class A device.

    3. Pursuant to Section 403 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,
       and Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, Keith T. Gaza 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 Keith T. Gaza. 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:

    5. The Privacy Act of 1974 requires that we advise you that the
       Commission will use all relevant material information before it,
       including any information disclosed in your reply, to determine what,
       if any, enforcement action is required to ensure compliance. Any false
