    2. On June 12, 2008, in response to an interference complaint from the

   When using telephony, transmit signals or communications not addressed to
   a particular station or stations. This provision does not apply to the
   transmission of distress, alarm, urgency, or safety signals or messages,
   or to test transmissions." The agents determined that a VHF transmitter
   installed on your vessel was found to be transmitting a continuous
   unmodulated carrier on VHF Marine channel 16 (156.8 MHz), the
   International and Distress Calling Frequency. The transmission was not
   conducted as a test or for distress or emergency purposes.

       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 Daniel Kelly. All replies and
