"Today, the FCC makes it abundantly clear that it will not tolerate unauthorized and illegal use of the radio spectrum. This may not be a typical pirate radio case in which an unauthorized operator inflicts damage on a radio broadcaster that is operating with a valid FCC license, but it does involve unauthorized interference to critical public safety communications systems........

For as long as the FCC has existed, the agency has had the important mission of preventing radio interference. And within the realm of public safety, the FCC has no higher purpose than promoting secure and reliable public safety and emergency response communications. The Commission must continue to discharge these critical duties—and vigorous prosecution of the fight against unauthorized operators is an important way to do so.

Hello Jim -

THIS is absolutely fantastic news. It is about time

the Commission stepped up to the plate, and with the new

procedures in place it takes a consent and sign-off of all

of the Commissioners to reduce the fine. It cannot be

reduced by staff. Chairman Pai is certainly the real deal !

Looks like Chairman Pai is REAL serious about enforcement! He even added a comment at the end of this Forfeiture notice! –See the last page.
