                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released: May 16, 2013

   By the District Director, Philadelphia 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 Service Electric Cable TV, Inc.
       (Service Electric), licensee of Private Land Mobile Station KCJ608 in
       Allentown, Pennsylvania. 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 violation noted herein.^

    2. In response to a complaint, on April 4, 2013, agents of the
       Enforcement Bureau's Philadelphia Office monitored the transmissions
       on 159.7950 MHz from a control station in Emmaus, Pennsylvania,
       licensed under Station KCJ608, in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and
       observed the following violation:

   47 C.F.R. S 1.903(a): "General rule. Stations in the Wireless Radio
   Services must be used and operated only in accordance with the rules
   applicable to their particular service as set forth in this title and with
   a valid authorization granted by the Commission under the provisions of
   this part . . . ." At the time of the inspection, the agents found Service
   Electric transmitting digital emissions on the frequency 159.7950 MHz. The
   license for Station KCJ608 only authorizes FM narrowband analog voice
   emissions (F3E) on the frequency 159.7950 MHz. The F3E class of emission
   does not authorize digital transmissions.

    3. Pursuant to Section 308(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
       amended,^ and Section 1.89 of the Rules, we seek additional
       information concerning the violations and any remedial actions taken.
       Therefore, Service Electric must submit a written statement concerning
       this matter within twenty (20) days of release of this Notice. The
       response (i) must fully explain each violation, including all relevant
       surrounding facts and circumstances, (ii) must contain a statement of
       the specific action(s) taken to correct each violation and preclude
       recurrence, and (iii) must include a time line for completion of any
       pending corrective action(s). The response must be complete in itself
       and must not be abbreviated by reference to other communications or
       answers to other notices.^

    4. In accordance with Section 1.16 of the Rules, we direct Service
       Electric to support its response to this Notice with an affidavit or
       declaration under penalty of perjury, signed and dated by an
       authorized officer of Service Electric with personal knowledge of the
       representations provided in Service Electric's response, verifying the
       truth and accuracy of the information therein,^ and confirming that
       all of the information requested by this Notice which is in the
       licensee's possession, custody, control, or knowledge has been
       produced. To knowingly and willfully make any false statement or
       conceal any material fact in reply to this Notice is punishable by
       fine or imprisonment under Title 18 of the U.S. Code.^

    5. 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:

    6. This Notice shall be sent to Service Electric Cable TV, Inc. at its

    7. The Privacy Act of 1974^ requires that we advise you that the

       if any, enforcement action is required to ensure compliance.
