GENERAL 1.0 INTRODUCTION The radio frequency spectrum is an important but limited resource managed by the Eastern Caribbean Telecommunications Authority (“ECTEL”) for the people of the ECTEL Member States.

The radio frequency spectrum provides a useful medium for the establishment of telecommunications and broadcasting services for the functioning and growth of the economies of the region.
The ECTEL Regional Spectrum Management Plan (“the Plan”) is a regional plan and divides the ECTEL radio frequency spectrum into several frequency bands and designates the general purposes for which each frequency band may be utilized.

This process is referred to as the allocation of frequency bands to radiocommunication services.
is responsible ECTEL for providing advice on Electronic Communications (Telecommunications) to the governments of the ECTEL Member States on the allocation of the spectrum resource to meet the demands of existing and emerging technologies and services thereby ensuring that the radio frequency spectrum provides the greatest economic and social benefit to the peoples of the region.
ECTEL Member States are signatories to the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), the Caribbean Telecommunications Union (CTU) and collaborate with other intergovernmental and national telecommunications regulatory organisations in the Americas.

Consequently, there is a need to have a regional spectrum framework that will inform the development of national telecommunications infrastructure within the ECTEL Member States as well as ensure that international treaties and conventions are observed.
1.1 BACKGROUND ECTEL was established by Treaty on 4th May 2000 and provides support for the management of the telecommunications affairs of five ECTEL Member States, namely the Commonwealth of Dominica, Grenada, the Federation of St Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, and St Vincent and the Grenadines.

The management of the limited spectrum resource is carried out under a multi-island spectrum management regime.
One of the basic principles applied is that of harmonizing the processes to ensure equitable distribution of the spectrum at the national level.

The five (5) ECTEL Member States are located in the Eastern Caribbean, from the Federation of St Kitts and Nevis on the northern extreme to Grenada at the most southern end.

The Member States are bordered by islands of English, French and Dutch speaking persons and cultures.
This unique juxtaposition of islands requires a sound and prudent spectrum management process for effectiveness.
4 ECTEL is comprised a Council of Ministers responsible for the formulation of policy for the management of telecommunications in the Member States, a Board of Directors that ensures effective implementation of the Treaty and policies in accordance with Directives from the Council, and a regional Directorate responsible for the general administration of the Treaty and the day-to-day management of ECTEL.

The Directorate is headed by a Managing Director and staffed with the required professionals.
1.2 INTENT The intent of the Plan is to broadly detail the radio communications services that are permitted for use (referred to as 'allocations') in the various frequency bands within the ECTEL Member States and to broadly detail the internationally agreed spectrum allocations of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) for Region 2.

Please be advised that the ECTEL Member States belong to ITU Region 2.
1.3 LEGISLATIVE AND REGULATORY FRAMEWORK The principal legislative frameworks for the management of the spectrum resource are the ECTEL Treaty, the Electronic Communications/Telecommunications Act and Regulations made under those Acts of the ECTEL Member States.

Article 5 of the ECTEL Treaty mandates ECTEL to prepare and maintain a harmonized regional radio spectrum plan for the National the five (5) ECTEL Member States.
Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (‘NTRC’) of its Member States on the management and assignment of the radio frequency spectrum resource to meet the demands of existing and emerging technologies and services, thereby ensuring that the radio frequency spectrum provides the greatest economic and social benefit to the citizens of the region.
Further, ECTEL advises Under the Electronic Communications/Telecommunications Act, the NTRC, in conjunction with ECTEL, plans, supervises, regulates and manages the use of the radio frequency spectrum.

The Electronic Communications/Telecommunications Act sets out the basic provisions which give the Commission the power to manage and monitor the national radio frequency spectrum resource.
Regulations made pursuant to the Act further enhance the legal mandate for ECTEL and the NTRC to manage radio frequency spectrum resource.

In preparation for the legislative reform and the introduction of the new Electronic Communications legislative framework, the ECTEL Treaty was amended by Protocol Amendment, which came into force on 5th December 2019.

ECTEL recommended a harmonised Electronic Communications (‘EC’) Bill for the five (5) Member States.
On 18th February 2021, the EC Act was passed by the National Assembly in the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis.

The EC Act now replaces the Telecommunications Act in the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis, and it is envisaged that in the future the remaining ECTEL Member States will transition to the EC legislative framework.

Class of emission: The set of characteristics of an emission, designated by standard symbols, e.g.

type of modulation of the main carrier, modulating signal, type of information to be transmitted, and also, if appropriate, any additional signal characteristics.

Single-sideband emission: An amplitude modulated emission with one sideband only.
Full carrier single-sideband emission: A single-sideband emission without reduction of the carrier.

Reduced carrier single -sideband emission: A single-sideband emission in which the degree of carrier suppression enables the carrier to be reconstituted and to be used for demodulation.

17 Out-of-band emission: Emission on a frequency or frequencies immediately outside the necessary bandwidth which results from the modulation process, but excluding spurious emissions.

Spurious emission: Emission on a frequency or frequencies which are outside the necessary bandwidth and the level of which may be reduced without affecting the corresponding transmission of information.
Spurious emissions include harmonic emissions, parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products, but exclude out-of- band emissions.

Unwanted emissions: Consist of spurious emissions and out-of-band emissions.

Out-of-band domain (of an emission): The frequency range, immediately outside the necessary bandwidth but excluding the spurious domain , in which out-o f-band emissions generally predominate.
Out-of-band emissions, defined based on their source, occur in the out-of-band domain and, to a lesser extent, in the spurious domain.

(WRC - 03) Spurious domain (of an emission): The frequency range beyond the out-of-band domain in which spurious emissions generally predominate.
(WRC-03) Assigned frequency band: The frequency band within which the emission of a station is authorized; the width of the band equals the necessary bandwidth plus twice the absolute value of the frequency tolerance.

Where space stations are concerned, the assigned frequency band includes twice the maximum Doppler shift that may occur in relation to any point of the Earth's surface.

Assigned frequency: The centre of the frequency band assigned to a station.
Characteristic frequency: A frequency which can be easily identified and measured in a given emission.

A carrier frequency may, for example, be designated as the characteristic frequency.

Reference frequency: A frequency having a fixed and specified position with respect to the assigned frequency.
The displacement of this frequency with respect to the assigned frequency has the same absolute value and sign that the displacement of the characteristic frequency has with respect to the centre of the frequency band occupied by the emission.

Frequency tolerance: The maximum permissible departure by the centre frequency of the frequency band occupied by an emission from the assigned frequency or, by the characteristic frequency of an emission from the reference frequency.
The frequency tolerance is expressed in parts in 106 or in hertz.

Necessary bandwidth: For a given class of emission, the width of the frequency band which is just sufficient to ensure the transmission of information at the rate and with the quality required under specified conditions.
Occupied bandwidth: The width of a frequency band such that, below the lower and above the upper frequency limits, the mean powers emitted are each equal to a specified percentage ß/2 of the total mean power of a given emission.

Unless otherwise specified in an ITU-R 18 Recommendation for the appropriate class of emission, the value of ß/2 should be taken as 0.5%.
Right-hand (clockwise) polarized wave: An elliptically- or circularly -polarized wave, in which the electric field vector, observed in any fixed plane, normal to the direction of propagation, whilst looking in the direction of propagation, rotates with time in a right-hand or clockwise direction.
Left-hand (anticlockwise) polarized wave: An elliptically- or circularly -polarized wave, in which the electric field vector, observed in any fixed plane, normal to the direction of propagation, whilst looking in the direction of propagation, rotates with time in a left-hand or anticlockwise direction.

is referred to it shall be expressed in one of the following forms, according to the class of emission, using the arbitrary symbols indicated: – peak envelope power (PX or p X); – mean power (PY or pY); – carrier power (PZ or pZ).

For different classes of emission, the relationships between peak envelope power, mean power and carrier power, under the conditions of normal operation and of no modulation, are contained in ITU-R Recommendations which may be used as a guide.
For use in formulae, the symbol p denotes power expressed in watts and the symbol P denotes power expressed in decibels relative to a reference level.

Peak envelope power (of a radio transmitter) : The average power supplied to the antenna transmission line by a transmitter during one radio frequency cycle at the crest of the modulation envelope taken under norm al operating conditions.
Mean power (of a radio transmitter): The average power supplied to the antenna transmission line by a transmitter during an interval of time sufficiently long compared with the lowest frequency encountered in the modulation taken under normal operating conditions.

Carrier power (of a radio transmitter): The average power supplied to the antenna transmission line by a transmitter during one radio frequency cycle taken under the condition of no modulation.
Gain of an antenna: The ratio, usually expressed in decibels, of the power required at the input of a loss-free reference antenna to the power supplied to the input of the given antenna to produce, in a given direction, the same field strength or the same power flux- density at the same distance.

When not specified otherwise, the gain refers to the direction of maximum radiation.

The gain may be considered for a specified polarization.
Depending on the choice of the reference antenna a distinction is made between: a) absolute or isotropic gain (Gi), when the reference antenna is an isotropic antenna isolated in space; b) gain relative to a half-wave dipole (G d), when the reference antenna is a half 19 - wave dipole isolated in space whose equatorial plane contains the given direction; c) gain relative to a short vertical antenna (Gv), when the reference antenna is a linear conductor, much shorter than one quarter of the wavelength, normal to the surface of a perfectly conducting plane which contains the given direction.
Equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.

): The product of the power supplied to the antenna and the antenna gain in a given direction relative to an isotropic antenna (absolute or isotropic gain).

Effective radiated power (e.r.p.)

(in a given direction): The product of the power supplied to the antenna and its gain relative to a half-wave dipole in a given direction.

Effective monopole radiated power (e.m.r.p.)


(in a given direction): The product of the power supplied to the antenna and its gain relative to a short vertical antenna in a given direction.

Troposphere scatter: The propagation of radio waves by scattering as a result of irregularities or discontinuities in the physical properties of the troposphere.

Ionospheric scatter: The propagation of radio waves by scattering as a result of irregularities or discontinuities in the ionization of the ionosphere.
4.8 FREQUENCY SHARING Interference: The effect of unwanted energy due to one or a combination of emissions, radiations, or inductions upon reception in a radiocommunication system, manifested by any performance degradation, misinterpretation, or loss of information which could be extracted in the absence of such unwanted energy.
Permissible interference3 2 : Observed or predicted interference which complies with quantitative interference and sharing criteria contained in the Radio Regulations or in ITU-R Recommendations or in special agreements as provided for in the Radio Regulations.

Accepted interference3: Interference at a higher level than that defined as permissible interference and which has been agreed upon between two or more administrations without prejudice to other administrations.
Harmful interference: Interference which endangers the functioning of a radionavigation service or of other safety services or seriously degrades, obstructs, or repeatedly interrupts a radiocommunication service operating in accordance with Radio Regulations (CS).

Protection ratio (R.F.


): The minimum value of the wanted-to-unwanted signal ratio, usually expressed in decibels, at the receiver input, determined under specified conditions such that a specified reception quality of the wanted signal is achieved at the receiver output.

3 The terms “permissible interference” and “accepted interference” are used in the coordination of frequency assignments between administrations.
20 Coordination area: When determining the need for coordination, the area surrounding an earth station sharing the same frequency band with terrestrial stations, or surrounding a transmitting earth station sharing the same bidirectionally allocated frequency band with receiving earth Stations, beyond which the level of permissible interference will not be exceeded and coordination is therefore not required.

(WRC -2000) Coordination contour: The line enclosing the coordination area.
Coordination distance: When determining the need for coordination, the distance on a given azimuth from an earth station sharing the same frequency band with terrestrial stations, or from a transmitting earth station sharing the same bidirectionally allocated frequency band with receiving earth stations, beyond which the level of permissible interference will not be exceeded and coordination is therefore not required.
(WRC-2000) Equivalent satellite link noise temperature: The noise temperature referred to the output of the receiving antenna of the earth station corresponding to the radio frequency noise power which produces the total observed noise at the output of the satellite link excluding noise due to interference coming from satellite links using other satellites and from terrestrial systems.
Effective boresight area (of a steerable satellite beam): An area on the surface of the Earth within which the boresight of a steerable satellite beam is intended to be pointed.

There may be more than one unconnected effective boresight area to which a single steerable satellite beam is intended to be pointed.
Effective antenna gain contour (of a steerable satellite beam): An envelope of antenna gain contours resulting from moving the boresight of a steerable satellite beam along the limits of the effective boresight area.

4.31 A sub-Region is an area consisting of two or more countries in the same Region.

5.0 FREQUENCY ALLOCATION TABLE The ECTEL regional frequency allocations are based on the ITU’s frequency allocations for Region 2 as defined in the geographic regions.
The ECTEL frequency allocations are found in column 2 of the Frequency Allocation Table (illustrated below) with the ITU’s Region 2 frequency allocations juxtaposed in column 1.

The ECTEL allocations are closely aligned with ITU recommendations of Region 2; however, there are some variations to ensure that national and regional policies are met.

Where variations are made, cognisance is taken of Radio Regulation No.
4.4 which requires 25 that any variation is subject to the condition that the associated radio installations do not cause harmful interference to the radio services or communications of other ITU Member States that operate in accordance with the provisions of the ITU’s Radio Regulations, and that the possibility of harmful interference from such services and communications is accepted.

The ECTEL Spectrum is allocated from 9 kHz to 1000 GHz.
It is however not utilised beyond 275 GHz as the proliferation of radio equipment within the ECTEL Member States is limited to those devices operating below 275 GHz.

5.1 SPECTRUM PLAN DIVIDED INTO FREQUENCY BANDS The Plan is divided into frequency bands for the ITU Region 2 and the ECTEL Tables.

5.2 REFERENCES TO SERVICES MADE IN THE TABLE 5.1 Words in the ECTEL Table appearing in Full Upper Case refer to Primary Services of the type specified by those words.
5.2 Words in the ECTEL table appearing in lower case refer to secondary services of the type specified by those words.

5.3 CONDITIONS THAT APPLY TO CERTAIN SERVICES Where (a) A frequency band is used for the purposes of a service in accordance with the Plan and (b) The ITU Radio Regulations do not provide for the frequency band to be used for that service Then the requirements for the coordination and notification of services by administrations apply to that use of the frequency band under this Plan.

Any FM Broadcast Services that have existing assignments in this band on May 1st 2011 may continue on their existing assigned frequencies.
The power limit for the use of this sub-band for use by Community Radio Service is limited to maximum power output of 25 W. The occupied Bandwidth for FM broadcast stations is limited to 150 kHz unless otherwise authorized by the NTRC.

E.4 In the previous edition of the ECTEL’s Regional Spectrum Plan, the frequency band 235-267 MHz.
was identified and allocated to Digital Audio Broadcast services, however internationally the main frequency band for use of Digital Audio Broadcasting service is 174 MHz to 240 MHz.

Further, in ECTEL Member States and Region 2, the band 174 MHz to 240 MHz is allocated to Broadcasting services which also facilitates for application such as Digital Audio Broadcast services.

Therefore, the frequency band 235 MHz -267 MHz is no longer identified and allocated for Digital Audio Broadcast service applications.
In conformity with ITU Region 2, Digital Audio Broadcast applications are allocated to the frequency band 174 MHz to 240 MHz.

E.5 The band 335 MHz – 399.9 MHz is allocated for applications such as Studio to Transmitter Links (STL) 152 E.6 The band 454.975 MHz - 470 MHz is allocated for point to point links for Radio and Television outside Broadcast applications on a primary basis.

E.7 The band 462.5625-467.7125 is allocated to Family Radio Service applications on a secondary basis.
E.8 In the Commonwealth of Dominica, the band 912-915 is allocated to Mobile Services E.9 The band 1710-1990 MHz is identified for use by ECTEL Member States to implement International Mobile Telecommunications (‘IMT’) and Broadband Wireless Access (‘BWA’) services.

E.10 The following radio frequency bands are allocated for the provision of Broadband Wireless Access services on a primary basis: • 698 MHz – 806 MHz; • 2300 MHz – 2400 MHz; • 2520 MHz – 2690 MHz; and • 3400 MHz – 3600 MHz.
Band Plans for Broadband Wireless Access Services Band Plans for 2.3 GHz, 2.5 GHz and 3.5 GHz The ECTEL band plans for following radio frequency bands 2.3 GHz, 2.5 GHz and 3.5 GHz have been adopted since June 2012.

However, the aforementioned band plans have remained largely unchanged in the ECTEL Member States whilst in the international community these band plans have undergone several modifications to meet the increasing demands being placed by various wireless applications.
Therefore, the aforementioned band plans will require modifications to comply with globally accepted standards and to ensure that equipment eco-system will be able to 153 operate in the ECTEL Member States.

The modifications to the band plans are as follows: 3.5 GHz band (3400 MHz - 3600 MHz) Globally, the radio frequencies in the 3.5 GHz band (3,400 to 3,500 MHz) are being used as the basis for the first implementations of advanced broadband wireless access networks and services such 5G New Radio (5G NR).
The global standards for the equipment eco-system for 3.5 GHz band is based on Time Division Duplex (TDD) frame structure.

However, the current 3.5 GHz band plan used in the ECTEL Member States is based on Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) operation and may not be compatible with TDD networks operating in the 3.5 GHz band.

Therefore, ECTEL is considering adopting a band plan for the 3.5 GHz band that will be based on Time Duplex Division (TDD) time frame structure.
The proposed channel bandwidths to be assigned to each operators will be 10 MHz or 20 MHz.

2.5 GHz band The range 2520 - 2690 MHz is allocated for broadband wireless applications and will be utilising TDD time frame structure.

2.3 GHz band (2300 MHz to 2400 MHz) The 2.3 GHz band plan for the ECTEL Member States will use a TDD time frame structure.
E.11 The following bands are designated for use by licence-exempt wireless local area networks and devices for non-commercial purposes operating on low power output levels with appropriately specified technical parameters and based upon not interfering with, or claiming protection from, licensed services.

2.4 – 2.4835 GHz.
2.4 – 2.4835 GHz.

5.150 - 5.350 GHz; and 5.725 - 5.875 GHz (Indoor use) 154 E.12 The allocation for the VHF land mobile band is 148 MHz to 174 MHz, with 156 MHz to 163 MHz allocated for maritime mobile use (this is a standard channelized band with international standards).

The land mobile band is further divided into 2 duplex band with 5MHz separation between the transmit frequencies and the receive frequencies, and 3 bands allocated for simplex operation.

The channel spacing will be 12.5 kHz.


3 MHz (2 MHz for duplex operation and 1 MHz for simplex operation) is allocated for emergency and Non-Governmental Organisation (‘NGO’) use as seen in the table below.

Land Mobile Band Plan E.13 The band 806MHz to 824.040 MHz is allocated for UHF Land Mobile Service 155 E.14 The range 698 to 806 MHz is allocated to Broadband Wireless Access applications.
The ECTEL 700 MHz band plan has been revised to align closer to the FCC’s 700 MHz band plan including making changes to align it closer to the FCC’s Upper 700 MHz band plan Frequency Block Frequency range /MHz Bandwidth /MHz A A' B B' E C' D D' PS UL/DL 698 to 704 / 728 to734 704 to 710 / 734 to740 710 to 716 / 740 to 746 716 to 722 722 to 728 776 to 782 / 746 to 752 782 to 788 / 752 to 758 788 to 793 / 758 to 763 793 to 805 /763 to 775 2 X 6 MHz 2 X 6 MHz 2 X 6 MHz 6 MHz 6 MHz 2 X 6 MHz 2 X 6 MHz 2 X 5 MHz 156 ECTEL is proposing a revision to allocate the D'-Block (758-763 MHz / 788-793 MHz) to Public Safety applications (Public Protection and Disaster Relief- PPDR) for nationwide emergency response broadband network; and PS Block for deploying and operating the nationwide public safety network.
It is also proposed that the prospective licensee will hold be authorised to use both the existing public safety spectrum (763-769 MHz/793-799 MHz) and the reallocated D' Block.

The rationale for the revision for the upper 700 MHz band to align it closer to the FCC’s Upper 700 MHz band plan is to allow the ECTEL Member States especially agencies with responsibility for disaster management and emergency response to take advantage of the equipment ecosystem and technology from North America.
The revision of ECTEL’s 700 MHz band plan does not affect the blocks that have been assigned to licensees in the ECTEL Member States namely ECTEL Blocks A', B, C' and D. All licensees who have been assigned spectrum in 700 MHz band prior to the revision of the Plan will maintain the assigned spectrum.

New licensees will have to comply with the revision to the ECTEL 700 MHz spectrum band.
E.15 In the ECTEL Member States, the frequency band 614 MHz to 698 MHz, or portions thereof, is identified for International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT) – see Resolution 224 (Rev.WRC19).

This identification does not preclude the use of these frequency bands by any application of the services to which they are allocated and does not establish priority in the Radio Regulations.

Mobile service stations of the IMT system within the frequency band are subject to agreement obtained under No.
9.21 of the ITU Radio Regulations and shall not cause harmful interference.

6.0 SPECTRUM MANAGEMENT IN ECTEL MEMBER STATES 6.1 TECHNICAL PLANNING TOOLS The Spectrum plan is the principal technical document providing information on the allocation of frequency bands to the different types of radio communications services used in the ECTEL Member States.
The Plan in its formulation takes into account the harmonized regulatory and spectrum management frameworks for the management of the radio frequency spectrum resources in the Member States.

The Spectrum Plan provides valuable information for radio system planning and implementation within the ECTEL Member States.
Radio communications engineers and wireless telecommunication designers should consult the NTRC prior to any system designs utilizing spectrum resource as there are critical elements which are integral in the spectrum management process within the ECTEL States.

The monitoring and management of the National Telecommunications Regulatory Commission in each Member State.

The NTRC will consult with ECTEL on the management of its national radio frequency spectrum.
frequency spectrum are carried out by radio the Some of the important elements which comprise the planning tools in spectrum management are: 157 • Legal requirements for licence and frequency authorisations prior to use spectrum; • Band plans and channel assignment plans for various radio communications services; • Designation of licensed and license-exempt frequency bands; • Technical parameters placed in the frequency authorisations for the use of spectrum; • Requirements for frequency coordination for certain frequency assignments between ECTEL Member and neighbouring territories.

7.0 BROADCASTING SERVICES The ECTEL Spectrum Plan makes provisions for the allocation of spectrum for the provision of broadcasting services in keeping with the ITU Region 2 recommendations.

The frequency bands as designated under the plan for broadcast services are: a) b) c) d) e) f) g) h) i) 525-1705 kHz.AM radio transmitters are assigned frequencies in this band 44-50 MHz and 54-72 MHz.

Analog Television transmitters are assigned frequencies in this band.

(TV channels 2,3 and 4) 76-88 MHz.


Analog television transmitters are assigned frequencies in this band (TV channels 5 and 6) 88-108 MHz.

FM radio transmitters are assigned frequencies in this band.

FM radio broadcasting is allocated 100 channels from 88.1 to 107.9 MHz.

The frequencies assigned in the 88-108 MHz band are for the delivery of FM broadcasting and are not intended to be used for the purpose of linking one broadcast transmitter site to another broadcast transmitter site.
335.4 MHz -399.9 MHz Studio to Transmitter Links are assigned frequencies in this band.

174-216 MHz.

Analog television transmitters are assigned frequencies in this band.

470-512 MHz.

Analog television providing UHF television broadcast are assigned frequencies in this band.

The assignment of frequencies in the respective broadcast bands are made subject to the adoption of the relevant standards promulgated under the Broadcast Regulations.
7.1 AM STANDARDS 158 The standards contained in the AM Standards document are the conditions necessary for the establishment of sound broadcasting in the Medium Wave (AM) band and in addition for the issuance of a Type Approval Certification for AM transmitters.

Type Approval Certification will be issued in accordance with accepted International Standards that the equipment has met or test carried by the applicant and certified by a professional engineer.
The Authority reserves the right to require adjustments to be made to the equipment should it cause interference notwithstanding having been certified previously.

The assignment of a broadcast channel is made in conformity with the Americas Regional Plan, RJ81.

DEFINITIONS AM broadcast Channel The band of frequencies occupied by the carrier and the upper and lower sidebands of an AM broadcast signal with the carrier frequency at the centre.

Channels are designated by their assigned carrier frequencies.
The 117 carrier frequencies assigned to AM broadcast stations begin at 540 kHz and progress in 10 Hz steps to 1700 kHz.

Class A Station.

A Class A station is an unlimited time station (that is, it can broadcast 24 hours per day) that operates on a clear channel.

The operating power shall not be less than 10 kilowatts (kW) or more than 50 kW.

Class B Station.

A Class B station is an unlimited time station.


Class B stations are authorized to operate with a minimum power of 0.250 kW (250 watts) and a maximum power of 50 kW.

(If a Class B station operates with less than 0.250 kW, the RMS must be equal to or greater than 141 mV/m at 1 km for the actual power.)

If the station is authorized to operate in the expanded band (1610 to 1700 kHz), the maximum power is 10 kW.

Class C Station.
Class C Station.

A Class C station is an unlimited time station that operates on a local channel.

The power shall not be less than 0.25 kW nor more than 1 kW.

Class C stations that are licensed to operate with 0.100 kW may continue to operate as licensed.

Class D Station.

A Class D station operates either daytime, limited time, or unlimited time with a nighttime power less than 0.250 kW and an equivalent RMS antenna field less than 141 mV/m at 1 km for the actual power.
Class D stations shall operate with daytime powers not less than 0.250 kW or more than 50 kW.

NOTE: If a station is an existing daytime- only station, its class will be Class D. 159 7.2 FM STANDARDS The standards contained in the FM Standards document are the conditions necessary for the establishment of sound broadcasting in the FM band and in addition for the issuance of a Type Approval Certification for FM transmitters.
Type Approval Certification will be issued in accordance with accepted international standards that the equipment has met or test carried by the applicant and certified by a professional engineer.
The Authority [NTRC] reserves the right to require adjustments to be made to the equipment should it cause interference notwithstanding having been certified previously Major changes in design made to the equipment, other than for the replacement of defective parts, will void the certification unless notified and approved by the Authority.
Transmitters will be authorized for power levels which will provide the minimum accepted field strength of 70 dBu (3.16µV/m) but shall not exceed 1KW transmitter power and an ERP of 3dBK Licensees of FM stations will not be permitted to operate same programming in multiple sub-bands The use of prime (broadcast) frequencies (88-108 MHz) for program rebroadcast will not be permitted.
