                         NOTICE OF UNLICENSED OPERATION

   Case Number: EB-08-DT-0052

   Document Number: W200832360012

   The Detroit Office received information that your Citizens Band ("CB")
   Radio Service station was being operated illegally and causing
   interference in Akron, Ohio. On April 3, 2008, an agent from this office
   inspected the radio station at your residence and confirmed that you were
   operating a RCI-2990 radio in your home and a RCI-2950 mobile in your
   vehicle, which are non-certified CB transceivers. Section 95.409(a) of the
   Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. S: 95.409(a), states that "[u]se of a
   transmitter which is not FCC certified voids your authority to operate the
   station." By using non- certified transceivers, you voided your authority
   to operate this station.

   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 the
   Federal laws cited above and could subject the operator 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. S:S: 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 regarding
   the operation of your CB station. 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.

   You may contact this office if you have any questions.
