The FCC agent monitored Chapman's radio communications and observed that Chapman was in violation of the following: 47 C.F.R. � 97.119(a): ``Each amateur station, except a space station or telecommand station, must transmit its assigned call sign on its transmitting channel at the end of each communication, and at least every 10 minutes during a communication, for the purpose of clearly marking the source of the transmissions from the station known to those receiving the transmissions.

The continuous transmissions of the same pre-recorded phrase and segments thereof, and the abrupt ending of those transmissions in mid-sentence without identification, suggests that Mr. Baxter did not exercise control of his station.
