Whether the transmitter malfunctioned and operated on 937.0944 MHz or any other frequency is only relevant to the extent that Callcomm held no Commission authorization to operate the transmitter. In other words, had the transmitter been operating on a Commission specified channel, see 47 C.F.R. § 90.613, Callcomm would still be liable unless it could produce a Commission authorization for the transmitter or point to a person or entity licensed to use the transmitter. Moreover, Callcomm's failure to comply is also repeated. 10.

  • 1998, from Law Offices of Thomas K. Crowe to Magalie Roman Salas. 7 The FCC's license records previously indicated that Battery was inadvertently assigned 806.7375 MHz as a mobile frequency, rather than 808.7375 MHz. This assignment apparently resulted from a typographical error in Battery's application to modify its license (granted April 29, 1997). Battery's mobile frequency is required by Section 90.613 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 90.613, to be 45 MHz lower than the base frequency. Thus, the assignment of the frequency 806.7375 MHz to Battery (rather than 808.7375 MHz) was an error which was inconsistent with Commission policy because it was 47 MHz lower than the associated base frequency, 853.7375 MHz.

  • demonstrated that grant of the requested waiver is warranted here. First, we find that the underlying purposes of both the Commission's Rules and the General Category freeze would not be frustrated by granting the requested waiver. In this regard, we conclude that grant of Florida's request to use the subject off-set channels would not frustrate the underlying purpose of Sections 90.613 and 90.615 of the Commission's Rules. We believe, as a general matter, that the underlying purpose of these Part 90 provisions is to further the Commission's goals of promoting technical flexibility and spectrum efficiency, while preventing harmful interference to licensed operations. For example, granting Florida a waiver to use the subject off-set channels would allow Florida to make more efficient

  • 1998, from Law Offices of Thomas K. Crowe to Magalie Roman Salas. 7 The FCC's license records previously indicated that Battery was inadvertently assigned 806.7375 MHz as a mobile frequency, rather than 808.7375 MHz. This assignment apparently resulted from a typographical error in Battery's application to modify its license (granted April 29, 1997). Battery's mobile frequency is required by Section 90.613 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 90.613, to be 45 MHz lower than the base frequency. Thus, the assignment of the frequency 806.7375 MHz to Battery (rather than 808.7375 MHz) was an error which was inconsistent with Commission policy because it was 47 MHz lower than the associated base frequency, 853.7375 MHz.
