§ 78.107   Equipment and installation.

   (a) Applications for new cable television relay stations, other than fixed
   stations, will not be accepted unless the equipment specified therein has
   been certificated. In the case of fixed stations, the equipment must be
   authorized  under  the  verification procedure for use pursuant to the
   provisions of this subpart. Transmitters designed for use in the 31.0 to
   31.3 GHz band shall be authorized under the verification procedure.

   (1) All transmitters first licensed or marketed shall comply with technical
   standards  of  this  subpart. This paragraph (b)(1) of this section is
   effective October 1, 1981.

   (2) Neither certification nor verification is required for the following
   transmitters:

   (i) Those which have an output power not greater than 250 mW and which are
   used in a CARS pickup station operating in the 12.7-13.2 GHz band; and

   (ii) Those used under a developmental authorization.

   (b) Cable television relay station transmitting equipment authorized to be
   used pursuant to an application accepted for filing prior to October 1,
   1981, may continue to be used, provided, that 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.

   (c)  The  installation of a CARS station shall be made by or under the
   immediate supervision of a qualified engineer. Any tests or adjustments
   requiring  the radiation of signals and which could result in improper
   operation shall be conducted by or under the immediate supervision of a
   person with required knowledge and skill to perform such tasks.

   (d) Simple repairs such as the replacement of tubes, fuses, or other plug-in
   components which require no particular skill may be made by an unskilled
   person.  Repairs  requiring  replacement of attached components or the
   adjustment of critical circuits or corroborative measurements shall be made
   only by a person with required knowledge and skill to perform such tasks.
