SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burden 
and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3501-3520), the Federal Communications Commission invites the general 
public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment 
on the following information collection(s). Comments are requested 
concerning: Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary 
for the proper performance of the functions of the Commission, 
including whether the information shall have practical utility; the 
accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; ways to enhance the 
quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; ways to 
minimize the burden of the collection of information on the 
respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology; and ways to further reduce the 
information burden for small business concerns with fewer than 25 
employees.
    The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information 
unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. No person 
shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a collection 
of information subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that does 
not display a valid OMB control number.

DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be 
submitted on or before August 6, 2013. If you anticipate that you will 
be submitting PRA comments, but find it difficult to do so within the 
period of time allowed by this notice, you should advise the FCC 
contact listed below as soon as possible.

ADDRESSES: Submit your PRA comments to Nicholas A. Fraser, Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB), via fax at 202-395-5167 or via Internet at

    The Commission established a recordkeeping procedure in section 
97.303(s) that required that amateur operator licensees using other 
antennas must maintain in their station records either manufacturer 
data on the antenna gain or calculations of the antenna gain.
    The amateur radio service governed by 47 CFR part 97 of the 
Commission's rules, provides spectrum for amateur radio service 
licensees to participate in a voluntary noncommercial communication 
service which provides emergency communications and allows 
experimentation with various radio techniques and technologies to 
further the understanding of radio use and the development of 
technologies.
    The information collection is used to calculate the effective 
radiated power (ERP) that the station is transmitting to ensure that 
ERP does not exceed 100 W PEP.

Federal Communications Commission.

Director.
