NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Released: October 31, 2011
By the District Director, Denver District Office, Western Region, Enforcement Bureau:
1. This is a Notice of Violation ("Notice") issued pursuant to Section 1.89 of the 
Commission’s Rules,1 to Educational Communications of Colorado Springs, Inc. (“ECCI”), license of FM 
Translator Station K292FM, licensed to Denver, Colorado.
2. On September 11, 2011, in response to a complaint from the FAA regarding interference 
to its operation on 118.9 MHz, an agent of the Enforcement Bureau’s  Denver Office monitored radio 
station K292FM located atop Lookout Mountain in Golden, Colorado, and observed the following 
violation:
a. 47 C.F.R. §74.1203(e):   “It shall be the responsibility of the licensee of an 
FM translator or FM booster station to correct any condition of interference 
which results from the radiation of radio frequency energy by its equipment 
on any frequency outside the assigned channel. Upon notice by the 
Commission to the station licensee that such interference is being caused, the 
operation of the FM translator or FM booster station shall be suspended 
within three minutes and shall not be resumed until the interference has been 
eliminated or it can be demonstrated that the interference is not due to 
spurious emissions by the FM translator or FM booster station; provided, 
however, that short test transmissions may be made during the period of 
suspended operation to check the efficacy of remedial measures.”  In 
response to the complaint, the Denver agent located the source to the 
K292FM transmitter site.  When notified by the Denver agent on September 
12, 2011, that K292FM was determined to be the source of the spurious 
emissions, ECCI’s representative suspended the translator’s operation.
  
1 47 C.F.R. § 1.89.
