As Section 95.411(c) states: the ``FCC will presume you have used a linear or other external RF power amplifier if - (1) It is in your possession or on your premises; and (2) There is other evidence that you have operated your CB station with more power than allowed by CB Rule 10, 95.410.'' Because two warm-to-the-touch linear amplifiers were located in Mr. Perry's residence next to a non-certificated CB transmitter that had been operated that evening, we presume he used the two amplifiers at his CB station on March 31, 2011, and, therefore, was in violation of Section 95.411. Furthermore, because Mr. Perry was operating his CB station in a manner inconsistent with

- the provisions of this Act. The Rules governing the licensing and operation of CB radio stations are set forth under Subpart D of Part 95 of the Rules. Section 95.409 of the Rules states that a CB operator must use an FCC certified CB transmitter and that use of a non-certified transmitter voids authority to operate the CB station. Section 95.410 of the Rules specifies that the CB station transmitter power output must not exceed 4 watts. Section 95.411 of the Rules prohibits attaching a power amplifier to a CB transmitter in any way. Furthermore, pursuant to Section 95.411(c) of the Rules, there is a presumption that a linear or other external RF power amplifier has been used if it is

- been unable to contact you. Therefore, we wanted to remind you that persons operating Citizen Band Radio Stations are required to comply with Federal Regulations. Pursuant to Section 95.404 of the FCC's Rules (``Rules''), you do not need an individual license to operate a CB station, provided you operate your CB station in accordance with the Rules. Pursuant to Section 95.410 of the FCC's Rules, the use of a CB radio with transmitter power output exceeding 4 watts (AM carrier power) voids the authority to operate the station. Therefore, any person operating a CB transmitter that is not FCC certificated or that has been modified (either internally or externally) or who attaches an external radio frequency power amplifier (linear amplifier) to

On September 28, 2006, agents from the Atlanta Office observed a non-certificated CB transmitter, a Galaxy DX99V, installed at his Mr. Duckworth's CB station. Mr. Duckworth admitted using a non-certificated CB transmitter. Section 95.410(a) of the Rules states that CB station transmitter output must not exceed 4 watts carrier power. Section 95.410(c) of the Rules also states that use of a transmitter which has carrier power in excess of that authorized voids your authority to operate the station. On July 18, and September 28, 2006, Mr. Duckworth's station carrier power was measured to be

- the provisions of this Act. The Rules governing the licensing and operation of CB radio stations are set forth under Subpart D of Part 95 of the Rules.5 Section 95.409 of the Rules states that a CB operator must use an FCC certified CB transmitter and that use of a non-certified transmitter voids authority to operate the CB station. Section 95.410 of the Rules specifies that the CB station transmitter power output must not exceed 4 watts. Section 95.411 of the Rules prohibits attaching a power amplifier to a CB transmitter in any way. Furthermore, pursuant to Section 95.411(c) of the Rules, there is a presumption that a linear or other external RF power amplifier has been used if it is

- been unable to contact you. Therefore, we wanted to remind you that persons operating Citizen Band Radio Stations are required to comply with Federal Regulations. Pursuant to Section 95.404 of the FCC's Rules ("Rules"), you do not need an individual license to operate a CB station, provided you operate your CB station in accordance with the Rules. Pursuant to Section 95.410 of the FCC's Rules, the use of a CB radio with transmitter power output exceeding 4 watts (AM carrier power) voids the authority to operate the station. Therefore, any person operating a CB transmitter that is not FCC certificated or that has been modified (either internally or externally) or who attaches an external radio frequency power amplifier (linear amplifier) to

On September 28, 2006, agents from the Atlanta Office observed a non-certificated CB transmitter, a Galaxy DX99V, installed at his Mr. Duckworth's CB station. Mr. Duckworth admitted using a non-certificated CB transmitter. 7. Section 95.410(a) of the Rules states that CB station transmitter output must not exceed 4 watts carrier power. Section 95.410(c) of the Rules also states that use of a transmitter which has carrier power in excess of that authorized voids your authority to operate the station. On July 18, and September 28, 2006, Mr. Duckworth's station carrier power was measured to be

Section 95.404 of the Rules states that CB operators do not require an individual license to operate a CB station because they are authorized by this rule to operate in accordance with the rules in this subpart. Section 95.410(a) of the Rules states that CB station transmitter output must not exceed 4 watts carrier power. Section 95.410(c) of the Rules also states that use of a transmitter which has carrier power in excess of that authorized voids your authority to operate the station.

We warn Barber that operation of his CB station with more power than authorized (AM (A3) - 4 watts (carrier power) SSB - 12 watts (peak envelope power)) is a violation of Section 95.410 of the Rules (CB Rule 10). Use of a transmitter which has carrier or peak envelope power in excess of that authorized will void Barber's authority to operate the station.

Mr. Smith seeks reconsideration of a Forfeiture Order, in which the Chief, Enforcement Bureau, issued a monetary forfeiture in the amount of thirteen thousand five hundred dollars ($13,500) for willful and repeated violations of Sections 95.409(a), 95.410(a) and 95.411(a)(1) of the Commission's Rules (``Rules''). The noted violations involve Mr. Smith's operation of a Citizens Band (``CB'') Radio Station with a non-type-accepted transmitter, with a transmitter output power greater than four watts carrier power in the AM (A3) mode, and with an external RF power amplifier. For the reasons discussed below, we reduce the forfeiture amount to three

- Kluz's CB transceiver. Mr. Kluz told the agents that he had obtained the linear amplifier from a friend two days earlier and was checking it out for his friend. Measurements taken by the agents indicated that the linear amplifier had an output power that ranged from 12.5 watts to 75 watts, which exceeds the permissible power limits specified in Section 95.410 of the Rules.4 11. On July 23, 2002, the Detroit Office issued a NAL for a $5,000 forfeiture to Mr. Kluz for using a linear amplifier as part of his CB radio station in willful violation of Section 95.411 of the Rules.5 Mr. Kluz did not respond to the NAL. However, on October 3, 2002, the Commission received a letter

- or communications or signals by radio within the United States except under and in accordance with the Act and with a license. Section 95.404 of the Rules states that CB operators do not require an individual license to operate a CB station because they are authorized by this rule to operate in accordance with the rules in this subpart. Section 95.410(a) of the Rules states that CB station transmitter output must not exceed 4 watts carrier power. Section 95.410(c) of the Rules also states that use of a transmitter which has carrier power in excess of that authorized voids your authority to operate the station. On November 8, 2006, agents from the Houston Office determined that Mr. Roberts operated his CB

- CB transmitter at their CB stations. Section 95.409 of the Rules also states that use of a non-certificated transmitter voids your authority to operate your station. On September 28, 2006, agents from the Atlanta Office observed a non-certificated CB transmitter, a Galaxy DX99V, installed at his Mr. Duckworth's CB station. Mr. Duckworth admitted using a non-certificated CB transmitter. 6. Section 95.410(a) of the Rules states that CB station transmitter output must not exceed 4 watts carrier power. Section 95.410(c) of the Rules also states that use of a transmitter which has carrier power in excess of that authorized voids your authority to operate the station.

Section 95.409(a) of the Rules states that you must use an FCC certificated CB transmitter at your CB station and that the use of a transmitter, which is not FCC certificated voids your authority to operate the station. Section 95.410 of the Rules states that your CB station transmitter power output must not exceed ... under any conditions: 4 watts (carrier power). Use of a transmitter which has carrier power in excess of that authorized voids your authority to operate the station.

In this Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture ("NAL"), we find that John Hays ("Mr. Hays") apparently willfully violated section 301 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended ("Act") and sections 95.410 and 95.411 of the Commission's rules ("Rules"), by operating a radio transmitter without the requisite Commission authorization. We conclude that Mr. Hays is apparently liable for a forfeiture in the amount of fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000). II. BACKGROUND 2. On November 29, 2007, in response to a complaint of interference, the Enforcement Bureau's New Orleans Office ("New Orleans Office") warned

- Policy Statement, section 1.80, and the statutory factors to the instant case, we conclude that Ira Jones is apparently liable for a $7,000 forfeiture. 12. We also warn Jones that operation of his CB radio station with more power than authorized (AM (A3) - 4 watts (carrier power) SSB - 12 watts (peak envelope power)) is a violation of section 95.410 of the Rules. Use of a transmitter which has carrier or peak envelope power in excess of that authorized will void Jones's authority to operate the station. We further warn Jones, pursuant to section 95.423 of the Rules, that overpowered operation of his CB radio station appears to be creating the interference within the Merced Fire County Department radio communications

- used in the CB radio service must be certified by the FCC prior to marketing. Internal modifications to a certificated CB transmitter are not allowed and will void a CB transceiver's certification. The Cobra Sound Tracker offered for sale to the agent was modified to allow an output power that far exceeded the power level permissible under 47 C.F.R. S: 95.410. Such modification voided the transceiver's certification and therefore cannot be sold in the United States. 7. Dual use CB and amateur radios may not be certificated under the Commission's rules. Section 95.655(a) of the rules specifically states: "...([CB] Transmitters with frequency capability for the Amateur Radio Services...will not be certificated.)."
