  • and Order ("Order"), we deny the Petition for Reconsideration filed by Portland Taxicab Company (``Portland Taxicab'') licensee of radio station WPRJ576, Portland, Oregon. Portland Taxicab seeks reconsideration of an Enforcement Bureau (``Bureau'') Forfeiture Order which found Portland Taxicab liable for a monetary forfeiture in the amount of twelve thousand dollars ($12,000) for willful and repeated violation of Sections 1.903(a), 90.210, 90.403(e) and 90.425(a) of the Commission's Rules ("Rules"). The noted violations involve Portland Taxicab's operation on frequencies without a valid FCC authorization, transmission of spurious emissions resulting in harmful interference to an amateur radio station, and failure to transmit proper station identification. For the reasons discussed below, the forfeiture amount of $12,000 will not be reduced. II. BACKGROUND 2. On March

  • December 17, 2004 Petition for Reconsideration filed by Joslyn Gordon, owner of Rescue Car Service, Inc. (``Rescue''), licensee of radio station WPTH937, Brooklyn, New York. Mr. Gordon seeks reconsideration of a December 3, 2004 Forfeiture Order in which the Enforcement Bureau imposed a monetary forfeiture in the amount of four thousand dollars ($4,000) for willful and repeated violation of Section 90.403(a)(2) of the Commission's Rules (``Rules''). The noted violation involves Rescue's operation of radio transmitting equipment on an unauthorized frequency. BACKGROUND On April 2, 2003, an agent from the Commission's New York Field Office (``New York Office'') monitored frequency 156.950 MHz in Brooklyn, New York in response to a complaint of interference to frequency 156.950 MHz, VHF Marine Channel 19, in

(``Traffic Control''), licensee of station WPNP358, in Tampa, Florida, for willful and repeated violation of Section 90.403(a)(2) of the Commission's Rules (``Rules''). The noted violation involves Traffic Control's operation of radio transmission equipment inconsistent with the terms of its authorization. II.

They note that three of the licensees use their assigned frequencies in pairs for duplex systems. In this regard, the petitioners argue that the respondents ``will fail to adequately monitor the transmitting frequency...for communications in progress, as required by Section 90.403(e) of the Commission's rules.'' The petitioners assert that, in order to properly monitor base station frequencies prior to transmitting, such licensees need equipment to monitor both of the paired frequencies, but probably will not install it. We note that the petitioners have failed to show actual interference. As a result, we decline to grant reconsideration based on the petitioners' speculative

  • school buses and the transporting of school children.'' According to Power, this use is ``extremely limited'' and ``solely for emergency purposes when the other channel installed in the radios is out of service and, yet, the safety of the lives of the children require communications to protect the transport of those persons.'' In support of this use, Power cites section 90.403(d) of the Commission's rules, which states that ``[c]ommunications involving the imminent safety-of-life or property are to be afforded priority by all licensees.'' But section 90.403(d) does not authorize Power's mobile operations on the shared frequency. That rule limits the authority of Part 90 licensees by prioritizing emergency communications, and does not affirmatively grant carriers authority to ignore their license restrictions.

  • station by merging it into MRCA's trunked system. However, because Hyland's conventional system is operating on this frequency, S&S' proposed modification could not be granted. A trunked system traditionally receives exclusive use of its frequency in the area of its operation at the time a license is granted. Furthermore, a trunked system cannot comply with the monitoring requirements of Section 90.403(e) of the Commission's Rules due to the possibility of creating harmful interference. Consequently, the grant of Hyland's application precluded grant of the modification application filed by S&S and MRCA because MRCA requires exclusive use of the channel for its trunked system. 5.

In this Memorandum Opinion and Order (``Order''), we cancel a four thousand dollar ($4,000) Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture (``NAL'') that the Philadelphia Field Office issued to Statcom Communications Corp. (``Statcom'') for apparently violating Section 90.403(e) of the Commission's Rules (``Rules''). The violation involved Statcom's alleged failure to monitor 461.525 MHz, a shared frequency, before transmitting. 2. After reviewing the record, including Statcom's decision to cease operating on 461.525 MHz, we conclude that cancellation of the NAL is warranted.

According to Power, this use is ``extremely limited'' and ``solely for emergency purposes when the other channel installed in the radios is out of service and, yet, the safety of the lives of the children require communications to protect the transport of those persons.'' In support of this use, Power cites section 90.403(d) of the Commission's rules, which states that ``[c]ommunications involving the imminent safety-of-life or property are to be afforded priority by all licensees.'' But section 90.403(d) does not authorize Power's mobile operations on the shared frequency. That rule limits the authority of Part 90 licensees by prioritizing emergency communications, and does not affirmatively grant carriers authority to ignore their license restrictions.

A trunked system traditionally receives exclusive use of its frequency in the area of its operation at the time a license is granted. Furthermore, a trunked system cannot comply with the monitoring requirements of Section 90.403(e) of the Commission's Rules due to the possibility of creating harmful interference. Consequently, the grant of Hyland's application precluded grant of the modification application filed by S&S and MRCA because MRCA requires exclusive use of the channel for its trunked system. 5.

Instead, the Coop stated that it is actually arguing that the increased traffic it is experiencing on its shared channels is tantamount to the "harmful interference" encompassed within Section 90.403(e) of the Commission's Rules. Intensive use of a shared channel is not "harmful interference" within the meaning of Section 90.403(e) of the Commission's Rules.
