§ 22.1007   Channels for offshore radiotelephone systems.

   The channels listed in this section are allocated for paired assignment
   to transmitters located in the specified geographical zones that
   provide offshore radiotelephone service. All channels have a bandwidth
   of 20 kHz and are designated by their center frequencies in MegaHertz.

   (a) Zone A--Southern Louisiana. The geographical area in Zone A is
   bounded as follows:

   From longitude W.87DEG45' on the East to longitude W.94DEG00' on the
   West and from the 4.8 kilometer (3 mile) limit along the Gulf of Mexico
   shoreline on the North to the limit of the Outer Continental Shelf on
   the South.

   (1) These channels may be assigned for use by offshore central
   (base/fixed) or subscriber stations (fixed, temporary fixed, surface
   and/or airborne mobile) as indicated, for voice-grade general
   communications:

   (8) Interstitial channels. Interstitial channels are those with center
   frequencies offset by +-12.5 kHz from the listed center frequencies.
   The FCC may assign interstitial channels to offshore stations in Zone A
   subject to the following conditions:

   (i) Offshore stations transmitting on interstitial channels must be
   located east of W.92DEG longitude.

   (ii) Operations on interstitial channels are considered to be secondary
   to operations on channels with the listed center frequencies.

   (iii) Offshore stations operating on interstitial channels must be used
   only for voice grade general communications or to provide for private
   line service.

   Note to paragraph (a) of § 22.1007: These channels are contained in UHF
   TV Channel 17.

   (b) Zone B--Southern Louisiana--Texas. (1) The geographical area in
   Zone B is bounded as follows:

   From longitude W.87DEG45' on the East to longitude W.95DEG00' on the
   West and from the 4.8 kilometer (3 mile) limit along the Gulf of Mexico
   shoreline on the North to the limit of the Outer Continental Shelf on
   the South.
