                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released:  October 7, 2010

   By the District Director, Los Angeles 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  Alliance Communications Gruop
       [sic] ("Alliance"), licensee of station WQCA755, in Montrose,
       California.

    2. On  July 20, and July 23, 2010,  in response to a complaint, an agent
       from the Enforcement Bureau's  Los Angeles  Office  monitored the
       frequency 451.525 MHz in the Los Angeles, California, area and
       observed the following violations:

     a. 47 C.F.R. S: 90.403(e): "Licensees shall take reasonable precautions
        to avoid causing harmful interference. This includes monitoring the
        transmitting frequency for communications in progress and such other
        measures as may be necessary to minimize the potential for causing
        interference." At the time of the investigation, the WQCA755 repeater
        was transmitting dispatch traffic for All Yellow Taxi, Inc.,  on 
        451.525 MHz, a frequency shared with other licensees in the Los
        Angeles area.  The agent observed that these transmissions often
        interrupted the transmissions by other licensees who were also
        licensed to use the same frequency. The agent interviewed the All
        Yellow Taxi, Inc. operations manager, who was unaware of the method
        to temporarily disable his digital squelch, or his need to monitor
        the shared channel before transmitting, which  created the potential
        for interference to other licensed users.

     b. 47 C.F.R. S: 90.425(a): "Except as provided for in paragraphs (d) and
        (e) of this section, each station or system shall be identified by
        the transmission of the assigned call sign during each transmission
        or exchange of transmissions, or once each 15 minutes (30 minutes in
        the Public Safety Pool) during periods of continuous operation."  At
        the time of the investigation, the WQCA755 repeater signal was
        monitored for several hours and at no time was  the call  sign
        identification heard.

    3. Pursuant to Section 308(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
       amended, and Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, Alliance  must
       submit a written statement concerning this matter  within twenty (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 an officer of Alliance. 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:

   Federal Communications Commission

   Los Angeles Office

   18000 Studebaker Rd., Suite 660

   Cerritos, CA 90703

    4. This Notice shall be sent to Alliance at its address of record.

    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
       statement made knowingly and willfully in reply to this Notice is
       punishable by fine or imprisonment under Title 18 of the U.S. Code.
