Sec. 74.582 Station identification.
(a) Each aural broadcast STL or intercity relay station, when transmitting
program material or information shall transmit station identification at the
beginning and end of each period of operation, and hourly, as close to the
hour as feasible, at a natural break in program offerings by one of the
following means:
(1) Transmission of its own call sign by aural means or by automatic
transmission of international Morse telegraphy.
(2) Aural transmission of the call sign of the radio broadcast station with
which it is licensed as an STL or intercity relay station.
(3) Aural transmission of the call sign of the radio broadcast station whose
signals are being relayed, or, when programs are obtained directly from
network lines and relayed, the network identification.
(b) Station identification transmissions during operation need not be made
when to make such transmission would interrupt a single consecutive speech,
play, religious service, symphony concert, or other such productions. In
such cases, the identification transmission shall be made at the first
interruption of the entertainment continuity and at the conclusion thereof.
(c) Where more than one aural broadcast STL or intercity relay station is
employed in an integrated relay system, the station at the point of
origination may originate the transmission of the call signs of all of the
stations in the relay system.
(d) Aural broadcast microwave booster stations will be assigned individual
call signs. However, station identification will be accomplished by the
retransmission of identification as provided in paragraph (a) of this
section.
(e) Voice transmissions shall normally be employed for station
identification. However, other methods of station identification may be
permitted or required by the Commission.
