Manufacturers filing for a grant of an application for new radios or a request to modify grants for radios already authorized must include a copy of this waiver with the application to include these channels. See AASHTO Comments at 1; PSST Comments at 3; NPSTC Comments at 4. 47 C.F.R. � 27.53(c)(2) and (c)(4). Because channels in the frequency range 775-776/805-806 MHz must be removed from radios upon expiration of this waiver, the described added potential for interference will not occur once the channels are removed. We note that rendering the radio permanently incapable of operating on the Guard Band channels would require costly modifications that could not readily be performed in

If commenters believe this is necessary, we seek comment on the appropriate attenuation values for bandwidths greater than 150 kilohertz, so as to maintain adequate protection for public safety operations.

Instead, OOBE limits will be applied, which are consistent with emission limits applicable to the C Block. Thus, A Block licensees are required to attenuateout-of-band byat least 43 +10log P dB. Further, the Commission will continue to apply heightened out-of-band emissions criteria in order to provide adequate protection to public safety. Therefore A

  • In Paragraph 55, the Commission decided to maintain the existing out-of-band emission limits for user stations. Because of other changes made to the rule, however, the text of the rule adopted by the Commission mistakenly eliminated any out-of-band emission limits for fixed digital user stations. Accordingly, in order to maintain the Commission's intent to maintain the existing limits, rule Section 27.53(m)(2)(v) has been added to read as follows: ``For all fixed digital user stations, the attenuation factor shall be not less than 43 + 10 log (P) dB at the channel edge." In Paragraph 59, the Commission adopted WCA's proposal to allow a licensee to measure out-of-band emissions from the outermost edges of the combined channels. The rule text adopting that

If developments in the industry change significantly by 2006 or later, we can reconsider our OOBE limits at that time. We note, however, that Section 27.53(f) currently states that in the event of harmful interference the Commission may, at its discretion, require greater attenuation than specified in the rules.338 123. Although we adopted an additional 76 + 10 log P dB limit to apply to OOBE of Upper 700 MHz commercial licensees that might fall within the Upper 700 MHz public safety bands,339 we see no
