                         NOTICE OF UNLICENSED OPERATION

   Case Number: EB-08-MA-0212/0214

   Document Number: W200932600026

   The Miami Office received information that unlicensed broadcast radio
   stations on 92.5 MHz and 103.9 MHz were allegedly operating in the Fort
   Lauderdale area. On November 24, 2008, agents from this office confirmed
   by direction finding techniques that radio signals on frequency 92.5 MHz
   were emanating from one of two antennas at the property 701 NW 20th Ave.,
   Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33311. On that same day, agents from this office
   confirmed by direction finding techniques that radio signals on the
   frequency 103.9 MHz were emanating from one of two antennas at the
   property 701 NW 20th Ave., Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33311. Information
   received by this office indicates you are one of the operators of this
   station. The Commission's records show that no license was issued for
   operation of a broadcast station on 92.5 MHz or 103.9 MHz at this location
   in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

   Radio stations must be licensed by the FCC pursuant to 47 U.S.C. S: 301.
   The only exception to this licensing requirement is for certain
   transmitters using or operating at a power level or mode of operation that
   complies with the standards established in Part 15 of the Commission's
   rules, 47 C.F.R. S:S:  15.1 et seq. On November 24, 2008, the field
   strengths of the signals on frequencies 92.5 MHz and 103.9 MHz were
   measured at 26,907 and 34,610 microvolts per meter (uV/m) at 224 meters,
   respectively, which exceeded the maximum permitted level of 250 uV/m at 3
   meters for non-licensed devices. Thus, these stations are operating in
   violation of 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 THESE RADIO STATIONS MUST NOT RESUME.

   You have ten (10) days from the date of this notice to respond with any
   evidence that you have authority to operate granted by the FCC. 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.
