PART 95_PERSONAL RADIO SERVICES--Table of Contents

 

              Subpart A_General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS)

 

Sec.  95.7  Channel sharing.



    (a) Channels or channel pairs (one 462 MHz frequency listed in Sec.  

95.29(a) of this part and one 467 MHz frequency listed in Sec.  95.29(b) 

of this part) are available to GMRS systems only on a shared basis and 

will not be assigned for the exclusive use of any licensee. All station 

operators and GMRS system licensees must cooperate in the selection and 

use of channels to reduce interference and to make the most effective 

use of the facilities.

    (b) Licensees of GMRS systems suffering or causing harmful 

interference are expected to cooperate and resolve this problem by 

mutually satisfactory arrangements. If the licensees are unable to do 

so, the FCC may impose restrictions including specifying the transmitter 

power, antenna height, or area or hours of operation of the stations 

concerned. Further, the use of any frequency at a given geographical 

location may be denied when, in the judgment of the FCC, its use in that 

location is not in the public interest; the use of any channel or 

channel pair may be restricted as to specified geographical areas, 

maximum power, or other operating conditions.
