ENFORCEMENT: WARNINGS TO TWO TRUCKING FIRMS ABOUT 10 METER OPS
The FCC has warned the owners of a Bristol Pennsylvania trucking company
to get their personnel off of the 10 meter Amateur band or face some
expensive consequences. In a letter to Cassidy's Express the FCC says
that it has information that one of the company's tractors pulling a
"CAI" trailer on Interstates 476 N and 76W in Pennsylvania, was the
source of unlicensed radio transmissions on the 10 meters.
The incident took place last October 9th between 8 AM and 8:30 AM local
time. The Commission has informed Cassidy's Express that operation of
radio transmitting equipment without a license is a violation of Section
301 of the Communications Act. That it could and will subject the
operator to fine or imprisonment, as well as seizure of any non-
certified radio transmitting equipment.
For those not aware, unlicensed operation carries a fine of $7,500 to
$10,000 for each instance charged. A similar letter was sent to CLR
Transport of Saluda, North Carolina warning of unlicensed 10 meter
operation from one of their trucks on Interstate 85 between Gastonia and
Kings Mountain, North Carolina on July 14, 2003. (FCC)
