Antenna Structure Number 1007848 in Poplar Bluff, Missouri, and observed the following violation:
 
47 CFR § 17.6. “The antenna structure owner is responsible for maintaining the 
painting and lighting in accordance with this part.”  At the time of the

 On February 20, 2018 after receiving information of the obstruction lighting outage, the Commission reported the obstruction 
lighting outage to the Federal Aviation Administration Outage Reporting System maintained by Lockheed Martin.  Out of 
caution, Lockheed Martin issued Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) Number 02-004.  This was further extended to May 7, 2018.   If 
Calvary Educational Broadcasting Network does not repair the obstruction lighting by May 7, 2018, the date the NOTAM will 
automatically expire, it will have to contact Lockheed Martin at 877-487-6867 to extend the NOTAM.  If repairs are made before 
the NOTAM automatically expires, Calvary Educational Broadcasting Network will have to contact Lockheed Martin to cancel 
the NOTAM.
