- OF VIOLATION Released: April 30, 2007 By the District Director, Philadelphia Office, Northeast Region, Enforcement Bureau: in Phillipsburg, New Jersey. On April 4, 2007, agents of the Commission's Philadelphia Office inspected the low-powered, non-licensed AM broadcast transmitter that Buttner was operating on 1700 kHz at his residence in Phillipsburg, New Jersey, and observed the following violation: 47 C.F.R. Section 15.219(b): ``The total length of the transmission line, antenna and ground lead (if used) shall not exceed 3 meters.'' At the time of the inspection, the combined length of the antenna and ground lead for Buttner's AM broadcast transmitter was 8.4 meters. The length of the ground lead was 5.8 meters and the length of the antenna was 2.6 meters. Pursuant

Specifically, Section 15.219(b) of the Rules states "the total length of the transmission line, antenna, and ground lead (if used) shall not exceed approximately 3 meters." See 47 C.F.R. 15.219(b). During the inspection on March 23, 2010, the agent observed that the approximate length of the vertical whip antenna and the ground lead used by the station was 3 meters,
