Sec. 15.235  Operation within the band 49.82-49.90 MHz.

    (a) The field strength of any emission within this band shall not 
exceed 10,000 microvolts/meter at 3 meters. The emission limit in this 
paragraph is based on measurement instrumentation employing an average 
detector. The provisions in Sec. 15.35 for limiting peak emissions 
apply.
    (b) The field strength of any emissions appearing between the band 
edges and up to 10 kHz above and below the band edges shall be 
attenuated at least 26 dB below the level of the unmodulated carrier or 
to the general limits in Sec. 15.209, whichever permits the higher 
emission levels. The field strength of any emissions removed by more 
than 10 kHz from the band edges shall not exceed the general radiated 
emission limits in Sec. 15.209. All signals exceeding 20 microvolts/
meter at 3 meters shall be reported in the application for 
certification.
    (c) For a home-built intentional radiator, as defined in 
Sec. 15.23(a), operating within the band 49.82-49.90 MHz, the following 
standards may be employed:
    (1) The RF carrier and modulation products shall be maintained 
within the band 49.82-49.90 MHz.
    (2) The total input power to the device measured at the battery or 
the power line terminals shall not exceed 100 milliwatts under any 
condition of modulation.
    (3) The antenna shall be a single element, one meter or less in 
length, permanently mounted on the enclosure containing the device.
    (4) Emissions outside of this band shall be attenuated at least 20 
dB below the level of the unmodulated carrier.
    (5) The regulations contained in Sec. 15.23 of this part apply to 
intentional radiators constructed under the provisions of this 
paragraph.
    (d) Cordless telephones are not permitted to operate under the 
provisions of this section.
