Telecommunication Regulations

[CAP. 106

A 47

[Subsidiary]

(c) The Station shall be operated only (i) by the Licensee personally, (ii) in the presence of and under the direct supervision of the Licensee, or (iii) by any other person who holds a licence approved by the Telecommunications Authority to use another amateur station.

(d) Messages shall not be broadcast to amateur stations in general, but shall be sent only to amateur stations with which communication is established separately and singly, or to groups of particular amateur stations with which communication is established collectively.

2. The Licensee, and all persons operating any stations which the Licensee is authorized by this Licence to establish and use shall observe and comply with the relevant provisions of the Telecommunication Convention.

3. (1) A satisfactory method of frequency stabilization shall be employed in the transmitting apparatus.

(ii) Equipment for frequency measurement shall be provided capable of verifying that the transmitting apparatus is operating with emissions within the authorized frequency bands.

4. (1) The apparatus comprised in the Station shall be so designed, constructed, maintained and used that the use of the Station does not cause (a) any avoidable interference with other amateur stations or (b) interference with any other duly licensed or authorized radio-communications.

(i) When radio-telegraphy (as distinct from radio-telephony) is being used, arrangements shall be made to ensure that the risk of interference due to keyclicks being caused to another radio-telegraphy is eliminated. At all times, every precaution shall be taken to avoid over-modulation, and to keep the radiated energy within the narrowest possible frequency bands having regard to the class of emission in use. In particular, the radiation of harmonics and other spurious emissions shall be suppressed to such a level that they cause no interference with any radiocommunications. Tests shall be carried out from time to time to ensure that the requirements of this paragraph are met.

(iii) The use of "spark" transmitting apparatus is specifically forbidden.

5. The Licensee shall not permit or suffer any unauthorized person to operate the Station or to have access to the apparatus comprised therein. The Licensee shall ensure that persons operating the Station shall observe the terms, provisions and limitations of this Licence at all times.

6. (i) A record shall be kept in a book (not loose-leaf) showing the following-

(a) Date.

(b) Time of commencement of calls made from the Station.

(c) Call signs of the Stations from which messages addressed to the Station are received or to which messages are transmitted, times of establishing and ending communication with each such Station, and the frequency or frequencies and class or classes of emission in each case.

(d) Time of closing down the Station.

All times to be stated in G.M.T. No gaps shall be left between entries and all entries shall be made at the time of transmitting and receiving.

(ii) If the Station is at any time operated by a person other than the Licensee (see clause 1(c)) the log shall be signed by that person with his full name, and the call sign of the Station which he is licensed to use.

7. The Station shall be equipped for the reception of messages transmitted on the frequency or frequencies and by means of the class or classes of emission, which are in current use at the Station for the purpose of transmission.

8. Messages addressed to the Station from any amateur station with which the Licensee is in communication may be recorded and retransmitted in accordance with this Licence, provided that the retransmission is intended for reception by the originating station only, and that the call sign of that station is not included in the retransmission.
