LPRS provides auditory assistance to persons with disabilities, health care assistance for the ill, law enforcement tracking services in cooperation with law enforcement and point-to-point network control for AMTS coast stations. 47 C.F.R. � 90.259. 47 C.F.R. � 90.248. 47 C.F.R � 97.303. The Amateur Radio Service is authorized to operate in the 219-220 MHz segment of the band secondary to AMTS. Amateur use of the 219-220 MHz segment is limited to stations participating as forwarding stations in point-to-point fixed digital message forwarding systems. 47 C.F.R. �� 80.475(a)(1) and 95.861.

In order to implement this proposal in the Commission's Rules for the Amateur Radio Service, we propose to add a new frequency sharing requirement to Section 97.303, which would read as follows: No amateur or amateur-satellite station transmitting in the 75.5-76 GHz segment shall cause interference to, nor is protected from interference due to the operation of, stations in the fixed service. After January 1, 2006, the 75.5-76 GHz segment is no longer allocated to the amateur service or to the amateur-satellite service. We request comment on

  • operating limitations in Colorado and Wyoming may be known to all amateur stations. Discussion. We agree that placing these operating limitations in our Rules would increase their availability to all amateur station licensees. Accordingly, we believe that inserting these limitations into our Rules is a reasonable manner to make these limitations known. For these reasons, we propose to amend Section 97.303(g)(1) as the ARRL requests. Color Coded Amateur Radio Licenses Background. Section 97.5 of our Rules sets forth the various types of amateur service station license grants we issue. We print amateur service license documents for the different types of station licenses and the different classes of operator licenses on the same license form using an automated process.
