Sec.  90.279   Power limitations applicable to the 421–430 MHz band.

   (a) Base station authorizations in the 421–430 MHz band will be subject to
   Effective Radiated Power (ERP) and Effective Antenna Height (EAH)
   limitations as shown in the table below. ERP is defined as the product of
   the power supplied to the antenna and its gain relative to a half-wave
   dipole in a given direction. EAH is calculated by subtracting the Assumed
   Average Terrain Elevation (AATE) as listed in table 7 of  Sec. 90.619 from the
   antenna height above mean sea level.

   Limits of Effective Radiated Power (ERP) Corresponding to Effective
     Antenna Heights (EAH) of Base Stations in the 421-430 MHz Band

   stations is 20 watts.
