Use and possession of all radio apparatus exempt in terms of the above table must comply with the following:

  • (a) All radio apparatus must be type-approved by the Authority in accordance with section 35 of the Act;

  • (b) The frequencies, transmitting power and external high-gain antenna of the radio apparatus must not be altered without a new type approval certificate being issued by the Authority;

  • (c) The RADIO APPARATUS must be operated within, and not exceed, the technical parameters set out in each of the applicable columns C and D of the Table with respect to the frequency band; maximum radiated power or field strength limits and channel spacing; relevant standard; and duty cycles and antennas to be used as contained in Column E.

  • (d) The antenna of the RADIO APPARATUS must not be higher or above average ground level than the lowest point of the place where the RADIO APPARATUS operates effectively.

  • (e) The RADIO APPARATUS must not cause Interference to any person issued with a radio frequency spectrum licence by the Authority.

  • (f) The user of the RADIO APPARATUS in the licence-exempt frequency spectrum operates on non-Interference and zero protection bases from interference.
