A3E will not be authorized: (i) At existing radiobeacon stations that are not authorized to use A3 and at new radiobeacon stations unless specifically recommended by the FAA for safety purposes. (ii) At existing radiobeacon stations currently authorized to use A3, subsequent to January 1, 1990, unless specifically recommended by the FAA for safety purposes. \3\ In the band 117.975-136 MHz, the authorized bandwidth is 25 kHz for transmitters approved after January 1, 1974. \4\ Applicable only to Survival Craft Stations and to the emergency locator transmitters and emergency locator transmitter test stations employing modulation in accordance with that specified in Sec. 87.141 of the Rules. The specified bandwidth and modulation requirements shall apply to emergency locator transmitters for which approval is granted after October 21, 1973. \5\ This emission may be authorized for audio frequency shift keying and phase shift keying for digital data links on any frequency listed in Sec. 87.263(a)(1), Sec. 87.263(a)(3) or Sec. 87.263(a)(5). 13K0A2D emission may be authorized on frequencies not used for voice communications. If the channel is used for voice communications, 13K0A9W emission may be authorized, provided the data is multiplexed on the voice carrier without derogating voice communications. \6\ Applicable to operational fixed stations in the bands 72.0-73.0 MHz and 75.4-76.0 MHz and to CAP stations using F3 on 143.900 MHz and 148.150 MHz. \7\ Applicable to operational fixed stations presently authorized in the band 73.0-74.6 MHz. \8\ The authorized bandwidth is equal to the necessary bandwidth for frequency or digitally modulated transmitters used in aeronautical telemetering and associated aeronautical telemetry or telecommand stations operating in the 1435-1535 MHz and 2310-2390 MHz bands. The necessary bandwidth must be computed in accordance with part 2 of this chapter. \9\ To be specified on license. \10\ H2B must be used by stations employing digital selective calling. \11\ For A1A, F1B and single sideband emissions, except H2B, the assigned frequency must be 1400 Hz above the carrier frequency. \12\ R3E, H3E, and J3E will be authorized only below 25000 kHz. Only H2B, J3E, J7B, and J9W are authorized, except that A3E and H3E may be used only on 3023 kHz and 5680 kHz for search and rescue operations. \13\ The letters ``K, L, M, Q, V, W, and X'' may also be used in place of the letter ``P'' for pulsed radars. \14\ Authorized for use at radiobeacon stations. \15\ Applicable only to transmitters of survival craft stations, emergency locator transmitter stations and emergency locator transmitter test stations approved after October 21, 1973. \16\ Authorized for use by aircraft earth stations. Lower values of necessary and authorized bandwidth are permitted. (b) For other emissions, an applicant must determine the emission designator by using part 2 of this chapter. (c) A license to use radiotelephony includes the use of tone signals or signaling devices whose sole function is to establish or maintain voice communications.
