  • multi-band handset in order to comply with these requirements, the handset must be hearing aid-compatible in each frequency band. The Commission further established that, before a handset can be offered in satisfaction of these obligations, the handset manufacturer must first certify that it is compliant with the compatibility requirements through the Commission's equipment authorization process as set forth in Section 2.1033(d) of the Commission's rules. The hearing aid compatibility rules set forth a series of specific, phased-in benchmarks for manufacturers and service providers to deploy handsets that meet these compatibility thresholds between 2005 and 2008. The rules required that: by September 16, 2005, each digital wireless handset manufacturer make available to wireless service providers, and each such provider make available to

  • hearing aid compatibility standards, we clarify that the manufacturer must certify the handset as compliant through the equipment authorization process set forth in Part 2 of our rules. Specifically, Section 20.19(b), establishing the ``Technical standard for hearing aid compatibility,'' requires that the manufacturer of the handset in question certify its compliance with the test requirements as set forth in Section 2.1033(d) of the Commission's rules. As a result, if a dual-band GSM handset was initially certified as compliant based on its rating in the 1900 MHz band but was not later re-certified as compliant in both bands, it ceased to be a compliant handset on August 1, 2006. Turning to the handset models at issue here, although both Nokia and Motorola

  • promptly and correctly, the payment can be tracked via computer. However, if the fee is not paid promptly or is paid incorrectly, the payment must be tracked manually. Manual tracking of tardy or incorrect fee payments wastes valuable staff and processing time for all applications. An application for equipment authorization must also be accompanied by the information described in Section 2.1033 of the FCC Rules. If a paper application was received without this required information, it would be considered incomplete and would be returned to the applicant for resubmission. With electronic filing, it is impossible to return an incomplete application and have it resubmitted. As a result, requesting this required information delays the processing of all applications for equipment authorization. Accordingly,
