NOTICE OF UNLICENSED OPERATION
Case Number:  EB-FIELDNER-16-00021871
Document Number:  W201632380044
The New York Office received information that an unlicensed broadcast radio station on 89.7
MHz was allegedly operating in Bronx, New York.  On June 9, 2016, agents from this office 
confirmed by direction finding techniques that radio signals on frequency 89.7 MHz were 
emanating from 1264 Sheridan Avenue, Bronx, New York.  The Commission’s records show 
that no license was issued for operation of a broadcast station on 89.7 MHz at this location in
Bronx, New York.
Radio stations must be licensed by the FCC pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 301.  The only exception to 
this licensing requirement is for certain transmitters using or operating at a power level or mode 
of operation that complies with the standards established in Part 15 of the Commission’s rules, 
47 C.F.R. §§ 15.1 et seq.  On June 9, 2016, the field strength of the signal on frequency 89.7
MHz exceeded the maximum permitted level of 250 microvolts per meter (µV/m) at 3 meters for 
non-licensed devices.  Thus, this station is operating in violation of 47 U.S.C. §301.
You are hereby warned that operation of radio transmitting equipment without a valid radio 
station authorization constitutes a violation of the Federal laws cited above and could subject the 
operator to severe penalties, including, but not limited to, substantial monetary fines, in rem
arrest action against the offending radio equipment, and criminal sanctions including 
imprisonment.  (see 47 U.S.C. §§ 401, 501, 503 and 510).  Be advised that this warning does not 
preclude this office from pursuing additional sanctions based upon our investigation of this 
incident.
UNLICENSED OPERATION OF THIS RADIO STATION MUST BE DISCONTINUED 
IMMEDIATELY.
You have ten (10) days from the date of this notice to respond with any evidence that you have 
authority to operate granted by the FCC.  Your response should be sent to the address in the 
letterhead and reference the listed case and document number.  Under the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 
U.S.C. § 552a(e)(3), we are informing you that the Commission’s staff will use all relevant 
material information before it to determine what, if any, enforcement action is required to ensure 
your compliance with FCC Rules.  This will include any information that you disclose in your 
reply.
You may contact this office if you have any questions.
