  • from 385 �V/m to 1,428 �V/m. Section 76.605(a)(12) of the Rules limits basic signal leakage in the frequency band from 54 MHz up to and including 216 MHz to 20 �V/m at a distance of 3 meters at any point in the system. Because Champion was operating on aeronautical frequencies, the system also was subject to the requirement in Section 76.611(a)(1) of the Rules that it conduct measurements annually to ensure that the totality of the system's leaks does not exceed a Cumulative Leakage Index ("CLI") value of 64. The agent determined that the calculated value of the CLI for all four leaks combined was 64.8. The agent then contacted Champion's Director of Operations, at 4:45 p.m. MST, March 28, 2006,

On each of those dates the agent determined that cable signal leakages exceeded 20 mV/m at a distance of at least three meters from each leakage, in violation of Section 76.605(a)(12) of the Rules. On April 17, 2000, the agent also found that the system did not conform to the cumulative signal leakage performance criteria, in violation of Section 76.611(a) of the Rules. On April 18, 2000, the agent determined that Charter VI had failed to comply with a directive to cease operation on aeronautical frequencies or reduce power until cable signal leakages were repaired. These violations resulted in an Official Notice of Violation (``NOV'') against Charter VI issued on June 7, 2000, and a $20,000 NAL13 released on April

In this regard, the Commission has indicated that a cable system operating with an ambient signal leakage level exceeding the Cumulative Signal Leakage Index (``CLI'') criteria set forth in Section 76.611 of the Commission's rules, such as MediaOne's, endangers the functioning of the radionavigation service and/or aeronautical communications. Accordingly, MediaOne was directed by Commission staff to cease operations in the frequency bands 108-137 MHz and 225-400 MHz because such endangerment constitutes harmful interference as defined by Section 76.613 of the Commission's rules, in addition to the actual interference caused to the

  • In this Memorandum Opinion and Order (``Order''), we cancel a monetary forfeiture in the amount of $8,000 proposed against Mallard Cablevision, LLC ("Mallard"), former operator of the above-captioned cable television system in Pinedale, Wyoming, for its apparent willful and repeated operation of a cable system in violation of the cable signal leakage standards as set forth in Sections 76.605(a)(12) and 76.611(a)(1) of the Commission's Rules ("Rules").1 While we cancel the forfeiture for a demonstrated inability to pay, we admonish Mallard for its willful and repeated violation of Sections 76.605(a)(12) and 76.611(a)(1) of the Commission's Rules. II. BACKGROUND 2. On June 8, 2003, an agent from the Commission's Denver Office inspected a portion of Mallard's cable system serving Pinedale, Wyoming, to identify

  • from 385 uV/m to 1,428 uV/m. Section 76.605(a)(12) of the Rules limits basic signal leakage in the frequency band from 54 MHz up to and including 216 MHz to 20 uV/m at a distance of 3 meters at any point in the system. Because Champion was operating on aeronautical frequencies, the system also was subject to the requirement in Section 76.611(a)(1) of the Rules that it conduct measurements annually to ensure that the totality of the system's leaks does not exceed a Cumulative Leakage Index ("CLI") value of 64. The agent determined that the calculated value of the CLI for all four leaks combined was 64.8. The agent then contacted Champion's Director of Operations, at 4:45 p.m. MST, March 28, 2006,

Section 76.1803 of the Rules requires cable system operators who provide service in the aeronautical bands to file FCC Form 320 every calendar year, reporting the results of the system's annual signal leakage performance tests required pursuant to section 76.611 of the Rules. In response to the LOI, SCI stated that the Meriden and Jefferson cable systems provide service in the aeronautical bands. As discussed above, SCI's manager admitted during the inspection that SCI had not filed the FCC Form 320s for the Meriden and Jefferson systems for calendar years 2009 and 2010 and did not have any records of

In this Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture and Order ("NAL"), we find that St. George Cable, Inc. ("St. George"), operator of the cable television system in St. George Island, Florida, apparently willfully and repeatedly violated sections 11.35(a), 76.605(a)(12), 76.611(a) and 76.1801 of the Commission's rules ("Rules"), by (1) failing to install Emergency Alert System ("EAS") equipment; (2) operating its cable system with excessive signal leakage; and (3) failing to register its cable system with the Commission. We conclude that St. George is apparently liable for a forfeiture in the amount of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000). We further order St.

Cable operators have the option of performing either the ground based CLI ([16]10 log I infinity or [17]10 log I3000) or airspace measurement, in either case the test result should show compliance with the basic signal leakage criteria outlined in 47 CFR Section 76.611. The test equipment used must be capable of measuring leaks of 20 v/m @ 3 meters or its equivalent, and the test frequency must be within the VHF aeronautical band of 108-137 MHz or a frequency in which the results can be correlated to that band. The test signal used shall carry an average power equal to the average power
