NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Released:  December 19, 2014
By the Resident Agent, Portland Office, Western Region, Enforcement Bureau:
1. This is a Notice of Violation (Notice) issued pursuant to Section 1.89 of the 
Commission’s rules (Rules)
1

2. On November 18, 2014, in response to a radio frequency interference on 466.7375 MHz 
and 466.8375 MHz, an agent of the Enforcement Bureau’s Portland Office located the interfering signals
to a defective U.H.F. amplifier card in the SOLiD Technologies  Distributed Antenna System (DAS) 
remote hub in the Evergreen Corporate Plaza Building, 205400 NW Evergreen Parkway, Hillsboro, 
Oregon 97124, and observed the following violation:
a. 47 C.F.R. § 1.903(a):  “Stations in the Wireless Radio Services must be used 
and operated only in accordance with the rules applicable to their particular 
service as set forth in this title and with a valid authorization granted by the 
Commission under the provisions of this part, except as specified in 
paragraph (b) of this section.” On November 18, 2104, an agent observed 
that the referenced U.H.F. amplifier card was transmitting spurious emissions 
and was causing interference.
b. 47 C.F.R. § 90.173(b):  “Licensees of stations suffering or causing harmful 
interference are expected to cooperate and resolve this problem by mutually 
satisfactory arrangements.” On December 3, 2014, a technician from 
Wireless Applications Consulting, Inc., informed the Commission that the 
faulty U.H.F. amplifier card was replaced and the interference has ceased.
3. Pursuant to Section 308(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,
3
and 
Section 1.89 of the Rules, we seek additional information concerning the violations and any remedial 
actions taken. Therefore, Nike Inc., must submit a written statement concerning this matter within twenty
