  • Corp. (Kenwood), a manufacturer of amateur radio equipment, requested a declaratory ruling confirming that its ``Sky Command System'' (Sky Command) complies with the amateur service rules. Alternatively, Kenwood requested the Commission to grant blanket rule waivers so that amateur service licensees could utilize Sky Command. In 2000, the Public Safety and Private Wireless Division denied Kenwood's request, concluding that Section 97.201(b) of the Commission's Rules does not authorize auxiliary stations to transmit on the 2 m band, and that Kenwood did not meet the standards for a waiver request. Subsequently, on May 1, 2001, Kenwood requested that we amend Section 97.201(b) of our Rules to allow auxiliary stations to transmit on the 2 m band above 144.5 MHz, except 145.8-146.0 MHz,

Rather, Technician and Technician Plus Class licensees licensed before 1987 may, under the current rules, receive credit for all examinations necessary to receive a General Class operator license by showing documentation of pre-1987 licensure.

  • System (BEARS) and Kendall Amateur Radio Society (KARS). On April 17, 2000, Kenwood submitted a Request for Waiver and paid fees for waiver of two rule sections. DISCUSSION Kenwood requests a declaratory ruling, or in the alternative, a waiver with respect to several Part 97 rules. As set forth below, we conclude that Sky Command does not comply with Section 97.201(b), and that a waiver of the rules is not warranted. The amateur service rules provide that an amateur station on or within 50 km of the Earth's surface may be under telecommand (remote control) where there is a radio or wireline control link between the control point and the station sufficient for the control operator to perform his or her

  • The underlying purpose of limiting auxiliary stations to these frequency bands has been to minimize the possibility of harmful interference to other amateur service stations and operations, particularly ``weak signal'' activity in the 2 m (144-148 MHz) band. In the NPRM, in response to a request from Kenwood Communications Corporation, the Commission sought comment on whether it should revise Section 97.201(b) of the Commission's Rules to allow auxiliary stations to transmit on the 2 m band above 144.5 MHz, except 145.8-146.0 MHz, in addition to the frequency segments previously authorized. In the NPRM, the Commission noted that there was no apparent basis to conclude that allowing auxiliary stations to transmit on the 2 m band would cause harmful interference to other

  • operator. "Automatically" means the retransmission is accomplished by some other means, such as a device which determines that a specific reaction is called for and then causes it to occur. Q: Are there exceptions where my amateur station may automatically retransmit the radio signals of other amateur stations? Yes. The [73]Rules provide such accommodation for three types of operation. [74]Section 97.201 accommodates auxiliary stations, [75]Section 97.205 accommodates repeater stations and [76]Section 97.207 accommodates space stations. Q: May my station retransmit the programs or signals emanating from any other type of radio station? [77]Section 97.113 provides two exceptions for retransmissions that are for the exclusive use of amateur operators. Your amateur station may retransmit occasionally as an incident of normal amateur radio
