An amateur radio operator is being called the source of radio interference that affected emergency service frequencies in one part of Pennsylvania last year, according to the Federal Communications Commission. Ken Peterson, KC Drew the FCC Enforcement Bureau has charged a HAM radio operator in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania with interfering with UHF frequencies used by 911 emergency services. The FCC identified the ham as David Knudson KD3 ASC. According to the agency, the Pittsburgh Amateur was transmitting on 470.4375 MHz from a handheld transceiver last July, prompting a complaint from the county's emergency services that there was interference on its dispatch channel. Using direction finding, the Bureau's enforcement agents tracked the signal to Knuts's home where they said he showed them a Mofang BT Tech UV Pro hp which he surrendered to them. The handheld radio is capable of transmitting onto VHS and UHF amateur radio bands as well as private land mobile radio bands. The FCC said that the radio had been programmed to monitor its radio EMS channel and that the audio relay was enabled, permitting traffic from one channel to be retransmitted on another. The FCC Notice is dated March 25th condition must respond to the Enforcement Bureau within 10 days of that date. This is Kemp Peterson KC0DGY.
