I. INTRODUCTION 
1. By this Order of Modification, we modify the license of the Fred Vetter (Vetter) for Private 
Land Mobile Radio (PLMR) Station WPVZ929 to replace frequency pair 810/855.6125 MHz with 
frequency pair 816/861.5125 MHz.  We take this action pursuant to an earlier order proposing to modify 
Vetter’s license.1
II. BACKGROUND  
2. Vetter is the licensee of PLMR Station WPVZ929 in Pemberville, Ohio, which is authorized 
to operate on frequency pair 810/855.6125 MHz.  Under the provisions of the Commission’s 800 MHz 
rebanding proceeding, Vetter must retune Station WPVZ929 from frequency pair 810/855.6125 MHz to 
frequency pair 816/861.5125 MHz at Sprint Nextel’s expense.2  Pursuant to the terms of 
Commission’s 800 MHz Second Report and Order,3 and the Implementation Plan established by the 
800 MHz Transition Administrator,4 Vetter was required to submit a cost estimate for this retuning 
by January 12, 2009.

4 800 MHz Transition Administrator, LLC, Implementation Plan and Timetable for the Reconfiguration of the 800 
MHz Band in the U.S.-Canada Border Regions, WT Docket No. 02-55 (Oct. 1, 2008), approved, Public Notice, 
“Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau Announces That the 30-Month Transition Period for 800 MHz 
(continued….)

3. In the 800 MHz Report and Order, the Commission charged all parties with a duty to act 
in good faith and warned parties that failure to act in good faith could result in license modification 
and involuntary relocation.5 Despite repeated urging on the part of the 800 MHz Transition 
Administrator, to date Vetter has failed to provide either the requisite cost estimate to Sprint Nextel 
or to request additional time to complete planning from the Public Safety and Homeland Security 
Bureau.6  
4. In an Order Proposing Modification (OPM) released July 30, 2010, we proposed to modify 
Vetter’s license by replacing frequency pair 810/855.6125 MHz with frequency pair 816/861.5125 MHz. 
Vetter was afforded thirty days to protest the OPM.7
III. DISCUSSION  
5. Because Vetter failed to protest the proposed modification of his license within thirty days,8
he is deemed to have consented to the proposed modification.9 Based on the record in this matter, we 
hereby modify the authorization for PLMR Station WPVZ929, as proposed in the OPM.  All costs 
associated with relocating to the new frequency pair must be borne by Vetter.  
6. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Sections 4(i) and 316 of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 154(i), 316, and Section 1.87 of the 
Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 1.87, that the license for Private Land Mobile Radio Service Station 
WPVZ929, held by Fred Vetter, BE MODIFIED by replace frequency pair 810/855.6125 MHz with 
frequency pair 816/861.5125 MHz.
7. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this Order of Modification SHALL BE SENT by certified 
mail, return receipt requested, to Fred Vetter, 11440 Devils Hole Road, Bowling Green, OH 43402; and 
to Dana Daberko, Shulman, Rogers, Gandal, Pordy & Ecker, P.A., 12505 Park Potomac Avenue, 6th
Floor, MD 20854.
8. This action is taken under delegated authority pursuant to Sections 0.131 and 0.331 of the 
Commission’s Rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.131, 0.331.
