                         NOTICE OF UNLICENSED OPERATION

   Case Number: EB-09-BS-0045

   Document Number: W201132260005

   The Boston Office received information that an unlicensed broadcast radio
   station on 103.3 MHz was allegedly operating in Bloomfield, CT. On
   September 21, 2010, agents from this office confirmed by direction finding
   techniques that radio signals on frequency 103.3 MHz were emanating from
   your residence in Bloomfield, CT. The Commission's records show that no
   license was issued for operation of a broadcast station on 103.3MHz  at
   this location in Bloomfield, CT.  

   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. The field strength of the signal on
   frequency 103.3  MHz was measured at 372,051 microvolts per meter (uV/m)
   at 70  meters, which exceeded the maximum permitted level of 250 uV/m at 3
   meters for non-licensed devices. Thus, this station is 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 THIS RADIO STATION MUST CEASE IMMEDIATELY.

   Pursuant to 47 U.S.C. S: 403 and 47 C.F.R. S: 1.17, you are directed to
   respond to the following questions and to provide any requested
   documentation:

    1. If you are the operator of the station, provide evidence that you have
       authority to operate granted by the FCC.

    2. If you are not the operators of the radio station or if there are
       others involved in the station's operation, provide the name(s) of the
       owner of the equipment and anyone else associated with the operation
       of the stations as well as their contact information, including
       mailing address and phone numbers.

    3. If you are leasing the space that is used for the operation of the
       radio station, provide any written lease agreement. If there is no
       written lease agreement, provide the terms of the agreement for use of
       the space.

   (4)   Provide the make and model number of the transmitters used for the
   radio broadcasting.

     (5)   Provide any other information that may be relevant to this
   inquiry.

   Your response to this inquiry must be supported by a sworn statement
   attesting to the truth and accuracy of the response.  You should submit
   your sworn response so that it is received at the following address no
   later than twenty (20) days from the date of this letter.

                       Federal Communications Commission

                         1 Batterymarch Park, Suite 102

                                Quincy, MA 02169

   To knowingly and willfully make any false statement or conceal any
   material fact in reply to this Notice is punishable by fine or
   imprisonment.  See 18 U.S.C. S: 1801; see also 47 C.F.R. S: 1.17.  Failure
   to respond appropriately to a Bureau directive constitutes a violation of
   the Communications Act and our rules.  See SBC Communications, Inc., Order
   of Forfeiture, 17 FCC Rcd 7589 (2002); Globcom, Inc., Notice of Apparent
   Liability for Forfeiture and Order, 18 FCC Rcd 19893, n. 36 (2003).

   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.
