                        NOTICE OF UNLICENSED OPERATION

	Case Number: EB-FIELDSCR-16-00022084
	Document Number:  W201632600025

On July 16, 2016, agents from this office confirmed by direction finding
techniques that radio signals on frequency 91.7 MHz were emanating
from a residential property on NW 8[th] St. in Homestead, Florida.
Public records list you as the property owners.  The Commission's records
show that no license was issued for operation of a broadcast station at
this location on 91.7 MHz in Homestead, Florida.

Radio stations operating on many frequencies, including 91.7 MHz, must be
licensed by the FCC pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 301.  The only exception to
this licensing requirement is for certain transmitters using or operating
at a power level that complies with the standards established in Part
15 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. §§  15.1 et seq.  On July 16,
2016, the field strength of the signal on frequency 91.7 MHz exceeded the
maximum permitted level of 250 microvolts per meter (uV/m) at 3 meters
for non-licensed devices.  Thus, this station is operating in violation
of 47 U.S.C. § 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. §§ 401, 501, 503
and 510.)

UNLICENSED OPERATION OF THIS RADIO STATION 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. § 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.

Regional Director
