  • the agents asked the station owner about the apparently misaligned directional antenna, he stated that that's the way the engineer installed it. Station WNNV is authorized to operate with an effective radiated power (``ERP'') of 5,000 watts at the radiated maxima of the antenna's directional pattern. On March 14, 2005, the agents observed, using the direct method specified in Section 73.267 of the Rules, that the station's 8,000 watt transmitter was operating at 100% power or 8,000 watts transmitter power output. Applying the antenna manufacturer's specifications for the antenna gain and subtracting line losses, the station's ERP was over 26,000 watts. Thus, station WNNV operated at over 500% of its authorized power. The station owner stated that the electric utility that

  • public interest. Rather, the inspection revealed two public inspection rule violations that were resolved during the course of the inspection and a transmitter power calculation violation that was unrelated to any claim made by Ms. Schademann or Mr. Powers. These violations were addressed through a verbal admonition to the Station's General Manager. We find that the Licensee's violations of Sections 73.267(c), 73.3527(e) and 73.3539 of the Rules do not constitute ``serious violations'' warranting designation for evidentiary hearing. Moreover, we find no evidence of violations that, when considered together, evidence a pattern of abuse. Further, we find that the Station served the public interest, convenience, and necessity during the subject license term. We will therefore grant the Application. IV. ORDERING CLAUSES Accordingly,

  • of the requisite authorization. Section 74.1235(e) of the Rules states that, "In no event shall a station authorized under this subpart be operated with a transmitter power output (TPO) in excess of the transmitter certified rating. A station authorized under this subpart for a TPO that is less than its transmitter certificated rating shall determine its TPO in accordance with §73.267 of this chapter and its TPO shall not be more than 105 percent of the authorized TPO." AGM operated the transmitter for KYLZ-FM1 at 127% of the authorized TPO. Based on the evidence before us, we find that AGM willfully violated Section 74.1235(e) of the Commission's Rules by failing to operate the KYLZ-FM1 within the authorized TPO limits. The base

BACKGROUND On March 15, 2005, a resident agent from the Commission's Norfolk Office of the Enforcement Bureau (``Norfolk Office'') inspected station WURB's main studio in Edenton, and WURB's transmission facilities in Windsor, North Carolina. The agent observed, using the indirect method specified in Section 73.267 of the Rules, that the WURB transmitter was operating at more than 140% power of the station's authorized power. During the inspection, the station's chief operator and contract engineer admitted that the station had not established monitoring procedures and schedules to determine compliance with operating power and modulation level requirements. The chief operator also admitted that she did not review

The agent observed, using the indirect method specified in Section 73.267 of the Rules,3 that the WURB transmitter was operating at more than 140% power of the station's authorized power. During the inspection, the station's chief operator and contract engineer admitted that the station had not established monitoring procedures and schedules to determine compliance with operating power and modulation level requirements.

  • public interest. Rather, the inspection revealed two public inspection rule violations that were resolved during the course of the inspection and a transmitter power calculation violation that was unrelated to any claim made by Ms. Schademann or Mr. Powers. These violations were addressed through a verbal admonition to the Station's General Manager. We find that the Licensee's violations of Sections 73.267(c), 73.3527(e) and 73.3539 of the Rules do not constitute ``serious violations'' warranting designation for evidentiary hearing. Moreover, we find no evidence of violations that, when considered together, evidence a pattern of abuse. Further, we find that the Station served the public interest, convenience, and necessity during the subject license term. We will therefore grant the Application. IV. ORDERING CLAUSES Accordingly,
