                        NOTICE OF UNLICENSED OPERATION

	Case Number:  EB-FIELDNER-16-00022164	Document Number:
	W201732380006

The New York Office received information that an unlicensed broadcast
radio station on 99.9 MHz was allegedly operating in Passaic, New Jersey.
On September 15, 2016, agents from this office confirmed by direction
finding techniques that radio signals on frequency 99.9 MHz were emanating
from 39 Highland Avenue, Passaic, New Jersey.  The Commission's records
show that no license was issued for operation of a broadcast station on
99.9 MHz at this location in Passaic, New Jersey.

Radio stations operating on many frequencies, including 99.9 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 or mode of operation that complies with the standards
established in Part 15 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 15.1 et
seq.  The field strength of the signal on frequency 99.9 MHz was measured
at 405,833 microvolts per meter (uV/m) at 121 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. § 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 BE DISCONTINUED
IMMEDIATELY.

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.
