                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released: June 23, 2008

   By the District Director, Denver Office, Western Region, Enforcement
   Bureau:

    1. This is a Notice of Violation ("Notice") issued pursuant to Section
       1.89 of the Commission's Rules, to O.J. and Carol Pratt, owner of
       antenna structure # 1022124 and licensee of Radio Station KSXT-AM in
       Longmont, Colorado.

    2. On April 11, 2008, at approximately 6:30 p.m., MDT, agents of the
       Enforcement Bureau's Denver District Office inspected antenna
       structure # 1022124, located near the intersection of West 1st Street
       and South Taft Avenue in Loveland, Colorado, and observed the
       following violation:

     a. 47 C.F.R. S: 73.49 states: "Antenna towers having radio frequency
        potential at the base (series fed, folded unipole, and insulated base
        antennas) must be enclosed within effective locked fences or other
        enclosures." At the time of the inspection, agents observed that the
        east side panel of the base fence surrounding the tower was down.
        Radio station KSXT-AM transmits from this structure, and, as such,
        the structure had radio frequency potential at the base.
        Investigation by the Denver agents revealed that the panel had fallen
        due to high winds on the day of the inspection.

    3. Pursuant to Section 403 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,
       and Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, O.J. and Carol Pratt, must
       submit a written statement concerning this matter within 20 days of
       release of this Notice. The response must fully explain the violation,
       must contain a statement of the specific action(s) taken to correct
       the 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 O.J. and Carol Pratt. 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
