The frequencies in the 138-144 MHz band sought by Wisconsin are allocated on an exclusive basis for Government radio stations. 5. The FCC may authorize non-Government (i.e., non-federal) stations to use Government frequencies in bands above 25 MHz. First, pursuant to Section 2.102(c) of the Commission's Rules, we must find, after consulting with the appropriate Government agency or agencies that non-Governmental use is necessary to coordinate Government and non-Government activities. After determining that the non-Governmental use is necessary, we then must determine if this non-Governmental operation on the Government frequencies conforms with conditions agreed upon by the FCC and the NTIA.

  • is the same one the NTIA is currently advocating for application to terminals placed in service after January 1, 2002 for protection of the entire GNSS band. There is a more-comprehensive set of restrictions on out-of-band emissions by satellite-service transmitters in Section 25.202(f), but they are more lenient than the NTIA-recommended limits. There is also a general requirement in Subsection 2.102(f) that transmission frequencies shall be separated from the limits of an allocated spectrum band insofar as necessary to avoid causing harmful interference to primary services in immediately adjoining bands. I.e., e.i.r.p. density limits of -70 dBW/MHz and -80 dBW/700 Hz on out-of-band emissions in the 1559-1605 MHz band. See detailed description in �� 41, supra. Document No. RTCA/DO-235, supra, Appendix

  • rulemaking to amend the domestic Table of Frequency Allocations to conform to the international allocation in this respect. The International Bureau has since granted waivers, moreover, to allow several licensees to use portions of these internationally-allocated bands for MSS feeder links and TT&C. Consistently with our analogous ruling in the Initial TT&C Order, we conclude that a waiver of Section 2.102(a) of the Commission's Rules to permit the proposed operation on a no-harmful-interference basis pending completion of the domestic allocation proceeding is warranted. IV. Ordering Clauses 8. Accordingly, pursuant to authority delegated by Sections 0.241 and 0.261 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. �0.241 and �0.261, IT IS ORDERED that Section 2.102(a) of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. �2.102(a), IS WAIVED

  • and executing policies, programs, procedures, and technical criteria pertaining to the allocation, management, and use of the spectrum. The frequencies in the 138-144 MHz band sought by Wisconsin are allocated on an exclusive basis for Government radio stations. 5. The FCC may authorize non-Government (i.e., non-federal) stations to use Government frequencies in bands above 25 MHz. First, pursuant to Section 2.102(c) of the Commission's Rules, we must find, after consulting with the appropriate Government agency or agencies that non-Governmental use is necessary to coordinate Government and non-Government activities. After determining that the non-Governmental use is necessary, we then must determine if this non-Governmental operation on the Government frequencies conforms with conditions agreed upon by the FCC and the NTIA. Second, in
