                MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER 

Adopted:  October 13, 2004                   Released:     
October 15, 2004

By the Chief, Enforcement Bureau:
    
      1.  In this Memorandum Opinion and Order (``Order''), 
         we grant the Petition for Reconsideration of the 
         Enforcement Bureau's Forfeiture Order1 in the above 
         captioned matter filed by Business Cell Systems 
         (``Business Cell'') on August 26, 2004.  Business 
         Cell seeks cancellation or reduction of the 
         forfeiture because of inability to pay.  Based on 
         our review of the financial information provided by 
         Business Cell, we conclude that an eight thousand 
         dollar ($8,000) forfeiture would impose a financial 
         hardship on the licensee.  Therefore, we reduce the 
         forfeiture to one thousand dollars ($1,000).  
      2.  Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to 
         Section 405 of the Communications Act of 1934 as 
         amended, and Sections 1.80(i) and 1.106 of the 
         Rules,2 Business Cell's Petition for 
         Reconsideration IS GRANTED, and the $8,000 
         forfeiture is reduced to one thousand dollars 
         ($1,000) for Business Cell's willful and repeated 
         violation of Section 17.51(b) of the Rules. 
      3.  Payment of the forfeiture shall be made in the 
         manner provided for in Section 1.80 of the 
         Commission's Rules3 within 30 days of the release 
         of this Order.  If the forfeiture is not paid 
         within the period specified, the case may be 
         referred to the Department of Justice for 
         collection pursuant to Section 504(a) of the Act.4  
         Payment may be made by credit card through the 
         Commission's Credit and Debt Management Center at 
         (202) 418-1995 or by mailing a check or similar 
         instrument, payable to the order of the Federal 
         Communications Commission, to the Federal 
         Communications Commission, P.O. Box 73482, Chicago, 
         Illinois 60673-7482.  Payment by overnight mail may 
         be sent to Bank One/LB 73482, 525 West Monroe, 8th 
         Floor Mailroom, Chicago, Illinois 60661.  Payment 
         by wire transfer may be made to ABA Number 
         071000013, receiving bank Bank One, and account 
         number 1165259.  The payment must include the FCC

         shall be sent by Certified Mail, Return Receipt
