   Released: October  9, 2012

   By the District Director, Chicago Office, Northeast Region, Enforcement
   Bureau:

    1. This is a Notice of Violation (Notice) issued pursuant to Section 1.89
       of the Commission's rules (Rules)to Prestige Communications Inc.,
       licensee of AM Station WLRB in Macomb, Illinois. Pursuant to Section
       1.89(a) of the Rules, issuance of this Notice does not preclude the
       Enforcement Bureau from further action if warranted, including issuing
       a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture for the violations noted
       herein.

    2. On September 18, 2012, an agent of the Enforcement Bureau's Chicago
       Office inspected Station WLRB located at Macomb, Illinois, and
       observed the following violations:

    a. 47 C.F.R. S: 73.1590: "(a) The licensee of each AM . . . station . . .
       must make equipment performance measurements for each main transmitter
       as follows: . . . (6) Annually, for AM stations, with not more than 14
       months between measurements." At the time of the inspection, there was
       no copy of the equipment performance measurements for Station WLRB
       evidenced.

    b. 47 C.F.R. S: 73.1820(a): " . . . The following information must be
       entered: . . . (1)(iii) An entry of each test and activation of the
       Emergency Alert System (EAS) pursuant to the requirement of part 11 of
       this chapter and the EAS Operating Handbook. Stations may keep EAS
       data in a special EAS log which shall be maintained at a convenient
       location; however, this log is considered a part of the station log."
       At the time of inspection, there was no log of each test and
       activation of the Emergency Alert System for June, July, and August
       2012.

    c. 47 C.F.R. S: 73.1870: "(a) The licensee of each AM, FM, TV or Class A
       TV broadcast station must designate a person to serve as the station's
       chief operator. . . . (b)(3) The designation of the chief operator
       must be in writing with a copy of the designation posted with the
       station license." At the time of inspection, there was no written
       designation of a chief operator for Station WLRB.

    d. 47 C.F.R. S: 73.3526(e): "Contents of the file. The material to be
       retained in the public inspection file is as follows: . . . (12) Radio
       issues/programs lists. For commercial AM and FM broadcast stations,
       every three months a list of programs that have provided the station's
       most significant treatment of community issues during the preceding
       three month period. The list for each calendar quarter is to be filed
       by the tenth day of the succeeding calendar quarter (e.g., January 10
       for the quarter October-December, April 10 for the quarter
       January-March, etc.). The list shall include a brief narrative
       describing what issues were given significant treatment and the
       programming that provided this treatment. The description of the
       programs shall include, but shall not be limited to, the time, date,
       duration, and title of each program in which the issue was treated."
       At the time of the inspection, the public file was missing the radio
       issues/programs lists for the 4th Quarter of 2011 and 1st and 2nd
       Quarters of 2012.

    3. Pursuant to Section 308(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
