I received such a warning letter back around the mid-80's. I'm sure I still have it somewhere but can't dig it up right now. The text of the "Notice of Station Operating Conditions" was along the lines of my repeater sent its callsign when no communications was taking place, & that the repeater shall only ID in accordance with Part 97.xxx. The notice was prompted by numerous complaints to the FCC sent by users of my repeater as well as a co-channelled repeater, each claiming interference from the "other" repeater. Bob NO6B
