FCC levies $10,000 fine for unlicensed operation (Jan 19, 2005) -- The
FCC has fined a Jacksonville, Florida, CBer $10,000 for transmitting
without Commission authorization. The Commission released the
Forfeiture Order (NOF) to Tommie Salter on December 27. The FCC says
that in March 2004 its Tampa Field Office, responding to interference
complaints, restricted Salter's hours of operation. The FCC lifted the
quiet hours two months later, providing Salter "operated in full
compliance with the Commission's rules." When interference complaints
resumed, the FCC last July 15 again notified Salter it was restricting
his hours of operation. The FCC NOF said a family member signed for the
notice but that Salter told Commission officials he had not read it. As
a result he transmitted while his operation was prohibited--between 6
AM and 11:59 PM. An August 2004 station inspection of Salter's CB
station revealed that he was operating a non FCC-certificated
transmitter, in violation of Part 95 rules. A Notice of Apparent
Liability (NAL) proposing the $10,000 fine followed in October. The
FCC's NOF upholds the fine, despite Salter's protests that his
violation was not willful because he did not understand that use of
non-certificated transmitters violated the rules and did not know about
the reinstated quiet hours. Salter also claimed he couldn't pay the
fine, but the FCC says he failed to provide tax returns or other
necessary documentation to back up that claim. The FCC authorizes CB
operation "by rule"--essentially a blanket license.--FCC
