Dear Andrew MacAllister (W5ACM),

This notice is being provided to Approve your proposed amateur radio station in 
the 135.7 - 137.8 | 472.0 - 479.0 band(s) at the following coordinates:  29⁰ N 
41’ 0”, 95⁰ W 37’ 0”.   UTC has determined that your proposed amateur radio 
station would not operate within a horizontal distance of one kilometer from a 
transmission line that conducts a power line carrier (PLC) signal in the 135.7 
- 137.8 | 472.0 - 479.0 bands.  

An amateur operator must not operate an amateur station if UTC responds that 
the proposed amateur station is located within 1 km of a transmission line with 
a PLC system that operates on the same frequency or frequency range.  Amateur 
operators are advised that their operations within 1 km of a PLC system could 
cause interference to PLC systems that are used by electric utilities to 
protect their electric transmission systems against faults and electrical 
outages.  Interference from amateur operations could affect the operation of 
PLC systems, thereby affecting the reliability of electric utility operations.  
As such, amateur operators are advised not to operate any amateur stations 
within 1 km of a transmission line with a PLC system that operates on the same 
frequency or frequency range, and amateur operators will be subject to FCC 
enforcement for unauthorized operations, as well as potential legal liability 
for damages that result from interference caused by amateur operations to PLC 
systems.

Please direct any questions to the undersigned.

Mike Etzel
