The FCC Enforcement Bureau ordered Fabrice Polynice to pay a $25,000 fine for operating annunlicensed radio station on the frequency 90.1 MHz in North Miami, Fla. Polynice operated the stationn"on six different days during March to July 2012 from three different locations in North Miami," the bureaunsaid in an order (http://bit.ly/XX7F3f). The bureau found Polynice’s claim "that someone else operated the unlicensed broadcast radio station unconvincing," it said. In a separate order, the bureau also orderednThomas Costa to pay $1,200 for operating radio transmitting equipment on the frequency 87.9 MHznin Iowa City, Iowa, without commission authorization, it said (http://bit.ly/XXbENp). The bureau reducednthe fine from the originally proposed amount of $10,000, it said. "Based on the financial documents providednby Mr. Costa, we find sufficient basis to reduce the forfeiture to $1,200." The bureau proposed an$10,000 fine for Romayne Davis, who allegedly operated an unlicensed radio transmitter on the frequencyn89.5 MHz in Oakland Park, Fla., it said in a notice of apparent liability (http://bit.ly/ZiBRrC). A review ofnthe FCC’s records revealed that no license or authorization "was issued to Mr. Davis or to anyone else tonoperate a radio station on 89.5 MHz at this location," it said.
