§ 74.550 Equipment authorization.
Each authorization for aural broadcast STL, ICR, and booster stations
shall require the use of equipment which has received a grant of
certification or authorized under a Supplier's Declaration of
Conformity. Equipment which has not been approved under the equipment
authorization program and which was in service prior to July 1, 1993,
may be retained solely for temporary uses necessary to restore or
maintain regular service provided by approved equipment, because the
main or primary unit has failed or requires servicing. Such temporary
uses may not interfere with or impede the establishment of other aural
broadcast auxiliary links and may not occur during more than 720
cumulative hours per year. Should interference occur, the licensee must
take all steps necessary to eliminate it, up to and including cessation
of operation of the auxiliary transmitter. All unapproved equipment
retained for temporary use must have been in the possession of the
licensee prior to July 1, 1993, and may not be obtained from other
sources. Equipment designed exclusively for fixed operation shall be
authorized under Supplier's Declaration of Conformity procedure. The
equipment authorization procedures are contained in subpart J of part 2
of this chapter.
Note 1 to § 74.550: The Declaration of Conformity procedure has been
replaced by Supplier's Declaration of Conformity. Equipment previously
authorized under subpart J of part 2 of this chapter may remain in use.
See § 2.950 to this chapter.
Note 2 to § 74.550: Consistent with the note to § 74.502(a),
grandfathered equipment in the 942-944 MHz band and STL/ICR users of
these frequencies in Puerto Rico are also required to come into
compliance by July 1, 1993. The backup provisions described above apply
to these stations also.
