§ 22.1037   Application requirements for offshore stations.

   Applications for new Offshore Radiotelephone Service stations must
   contain an exhibit showing that:

   (a) The applicant has notified all licensees of offshore stations
   located within 321.8 kilometers (200 miles) of the proposed offshore
   station, by providing the following data, at least 30 days before
   filing the application:

   (1) The name, business address, channel coordinator, and telephone
   number of the applicant;

   (2) The location and geographical coordinates of the proposed station;

   (3) The channel and type of emission;

   (4) The height and type of antenna;

   (5) The bearing of the main lobe of the antenna; and,

   (6) The effective radiated power.

   (b) The proposed station will not interfere with the primary ORS
   channels by compliance with the following separations:

   (1) Co-channel to a distance of 241.4 kilometers (150 miles).

   (2) If interstitial channels are used, adjacent channels (±12.5 kHz) to
   a distance of 80.5 kilometers (50 miles).

   (3) Third order intermodulation channels (±12.5 kHz) to a distance of
   32.2 kilometers (20 miles).

   (4) If the proposed transmitting antenna site is located west of
   longitude W.93°40′, and within 32.2 kilometers (20 miles) of the
   shoreline, and proposed use of the channels listed in § 22.1007(b), no
   third-order intermodulation interference would be caused to any base or
   mobile station using the channels between 488 and 494 MHz.
