FCC Warns Trucking Firms about Alleged Unlicensed 10-Meter Operation
NEWINGTON, CT, Jul 28, 2003--The FCC Enforcement Bureau has sent Warning Notice letters to three highway transportation firms asserting that drivers of some of their vehicles may have transmitted without a license on 10 meters. All three notices allege the unlicensed operations took place July 8 on Interstate highways in South Carolina. Letters went out July 14 from FCC Special Counsel Riley Hollingsworth to Jolly Roger Capital Ltd of Columbia, South Carolina, Tidewater Transit Company of Kinston, North Carolina, and Shuford Lumber of Marion, North Carolina. He warned all three firms that operation of radio transmitting equipment without a license could lead to fines of up to $10,000, equipment seizure and even imprisonment. Hollingsworth cited "information before the Commission" that spelled out each vehicle's highway location, license plate and--in two instances--operating frequency (28.085 MHz). One of the Warning Notice letters also identified the make and year of the vehicle. The alleged offenses were said to have occurred when the vehicles were under way on Interstate 77 or Interstate 20 in South Carolina. Hollingsworth asked all three firms to get in touch with him to discuss the allegations. |
