Sec. 95.119  Station identification.

    (a) Except as provided in paragraph (e) of this section, every 
station in a GMRS system and every mobile station unit must transmit a 
station identification:
    (1) Following the transmission of communications or a series of 
communications; and
    (2) Every 15 minutes during a long transmission.
    (b) The station identification is the call sign assigned to:
    (1) The GMRS system; or
    (2) The station in the GMRS system transmitting communications.
    (c) A unit number may be included after the call sign in the 
identification.
    (d) The station identification must be clearly transmitted in:
    (1) Voice in the English language, with each letter and digit 
separately and distinctly transmitted (letters may be said using a 
phonetic alphabet); or
    (2) International Morse code telegraphy with a keyed tone (400 to 
2,000 Hertz) between 8.34 and 20.85 baud (ten to twenty-five words per 
minute). The transmitted frequency deviation must be between 1,500 and 
2,500 Hertz. Should delayed or periodic activation of automatic Morse 
code identification equipment interrupt the communications of another 
co-channel licensee, the Commission may require the use of equipment 
which will inhibit automatic station identification when co-channel 
communications are in progress.
    (e) A station need not identify its transmissions if it 
automatically retransmits communications from another station which are 
properly identified.
