§ 74.451   Certification of equipment.

   (a) Applications for new remote pickup broadcast stations or systems or for
   changing transmitting equipment of an existing station will not be accepted
   unless  the  transmitters to be used have been certificated by the FCC
   pursuant to the provisions of this subpart, or have been certificated for
   licensing under part 90 of this chapter and do not exceed the output power
   limits specified in § 74.461(b).

   (b) Any manufacturer of a transmitter to be used in this service may apply
   for certification for such transmitter following the certification procedure
   set forth in part 2 of the Commission's rules and regulations. Attention is
   also directed to part 1 of the Commission's rules and regulations which
   specifies the fees required when filing an application for certification.

   (c) An applicant for a remote pickup broadcast station or system may also
   apply for certification for an individual transmitter by following the
   certification procedure set forth in part 2 of the Commission's rules and
   regulations.

   (d)  All  transmitters  marketed  for  use under this subpart shall be
   certificated by the Federal Communications Commission. (Refer to subpart J
   of part 2 of the Commission's Rules and Regulations.)

   (e) Remote pickup broadcast station equipment authorized to be used pursuant
   to  an  application accepted for filing prior to December 1, 1977, may
   continue  to  be  used by the licensee or its successors or assignees:
   Provided,  however,  If  operation  of  such  equipment causes harmful
   interference due to its failure to comply with the technical standards set
   forth in this subpart, the Commission may, at its discretion, require the
   licensee to take such corrective action as is necessary to eliminate the
   interference.

   (f) Each instrument of authority which permits operation of a remote pickup
   broadcast station or system using equipment which has not been certificated
   will specify the particular transmitting equipment which the licensee is
   authorized to use.
