**ERRATA**

**Adopted:** April 18, 2000 **Released:** April 20, 2000

By the Deputy Chief, Public Safety and Private Wireless Division,
Wireless Telecommunication Bureau:

This *Errata* makes minor corrections to the rules that appeared in
Appendix B of the *Report and Order* in the captioned proceeding, FCC
99-363, which was released on November 29, 1999.[^1] These errors were
corrected before the rules were published in the Federal Register.[^2]
Appendix B is corrected as follows:

1\. The authority citation for part 2 is corrected by inserting
references to sections 336 and 337 of title 47 of the United States Code
to read as follows:

**Authority: 47 U.S.C. 154, 302, 303, 307, 336 and 337, unless otherwise
noted.**

2\. Footnote US345 to Section 2.106 is corrected by deleting the last
sentence of the footnote to read as follows:

USA345 In the band 402-405 MHz, the mobile, except mobile aeronautical,
service is allocated on a secondary basis and is limited to, with the
exception of military tactical mobile stations, Medical Implant
Communications Service (MICS) operations. MICS stations are authorized
by rule on the condition that harmful interference is not caused to
stations in the meteorological aids, meteorological-satellite, and earth
exploration-satellite services, and that MICS stations accept
interference from stations in the meteorological aids,
meteorological-satellite, and earth exploration-satellite services.

3\. Section 95.601 is corrected by deleting reference to the "Multi-Use
Radio Service (MURS)---subpart H" to read as follows:

\* \* \* The Personal Radio Services are the GMRS (General Mobile Radio
Service)---subpart A, the Family Radio Service (FRS)---subpart B, the
R/C (Radio Control Radio Service)---subpart C, the CB (Citizens Band
Radio Service)---subpart D, the Low Power Radio Service (LPRS)---subpart
G, and the Medical Implant Communications Service (MICS)---subpart I.

4\. Paragraph (g) of Section 95.603 is corrected by redesignating it as
paragraph (f).

5\. Section 95.605 is corrected by deleting the reference to "MURS" to
read as follows:

Any entity may request certification for its transmitter when the
transmitter is used in the GMRS, R/C, CB, IVDS, LPRS, or MICS following
the procedures in part 2 of this chapter. Medical implant transmitters
shall be tested for emissions and EIRP limit compliance while enclosed
in a medium that simulates human body tissue in accordance with the
procedures in Sec. 95.639(g). Frequency stability testing for MICS
transmitters shall be performed over the temperature range set forth in
Sec. 95.628.

6\. Paragraph (i) of Section 95.631 is corrected by redesignating it as
paragraph (h).

7\. Paragraph (f) of Section 95.633 is corrected by redesignating it as
paragraph (e).

8\. Paragraph (e) of Section 95.635 is corrected by redesignating it as
paragraph (d).

9\. Paragraph (g) of Section 95.639 is corrected by redesignating it as
paragraph (f).

10\. Section 95.649 is revised by deleting the reference to "MURS" to
read as follows:

No FRS, R/C, CB, LPRS, or MICS transmitter shall incorporate provisions
for increasing its transmitter power to any level in excess of the
limits specified in Sec. 95.639.

11\. Section 95.651 is revised by deleting the reference to "a MURS
unit" to read as follows:

All transmitters used in the Personal Radio Services must be crystal
controlled, except an R/C station that transmits in the 26-27 MHz
frequency band, a FRS unit, a LPRS unit, or a MICS transmitter.

12\. The omission of Subpart H of Part 95 is corrected by adding and
reserving Subpart H to read as follows:

Subpart H---\[Reserved\]

13\. Subpart I is corrected by adding a table of contents for Subpart I
to read as follows:

Subpart I---Medical Implant Communications (MICS)

Sec.

95.1201 Eligibility.

95.1203 Authorized locations.

95.1205 Station identification.

95.1207 Station inspection.

95.1209 Permissible communications.

95.1211 Channel use policy.

95.1213 Antennas.

95.1215 Disclosure policies.

95.1217 Labeling requirements.

95.1219 Marketing limitations.

14\. Paragraph (a) of Section 95.1209 is corrected by deleting "as
provided below" after "Except" to read as follows:

\(a\) Except for the purposes of testing and for demonstrations to
health care professionals, medical implant programmer/control
transmitters may transmit only operational, diagnostic and therapeutic
information associated with a medical implant device that has been
implanted by a duly authorized health care professional.
