licensing under part 90 of this chapter and do not exceed the output power
limits specified in Sec. 74.461(b).
(b) Any manufacturer of a transmitter to be used in this service may apply
for certification for such transmitter following the certification procedure

regulations.
(d) All transmitters marketed for use under this subpart shall be

(e) Remote pickup broadcast station equipment authorized to be used pursuant
to an application accepted for filing prior to December 1, 1977, may
continue to be used by the licensee or its successors or assignees:
Provided, however, If operation of such equipment causes harmful
interference due to its failure to comply with the technical standards set
forth in this subpart, the Commission may, at its discretion, require the
licensee to take such corrective action as is necessary to eliminate the
interference.
(f) Each instrument of authority which permits operation of a remote pickup
broadcast station or system using equipment which has not been certificated
will specify the particular transmitting equipment which the licensee is
authorized to use.
