SUMMARY: On August 10, 2005, (70 FR 46576) the Commission published 
final rules in a Report and Order, which implemented allocation changes 
to the frequency range between 5900 kHz and 27.5 GHz in furtherance of 
decisions that were made at the World Radiocommunication Conference 
(Geneva 2003) (WRC-03). This document contains corrections to 47 CFR 
2.101 and 2.106.

DATES: Effective September 9, 2005.

broadcasting service published in accordance with Article 12 of the ITU 
Radio Regulations.

transmission of telecommunications signals, on the condition that 
harmful interference will not be caused to the reception of primary 
services, and that such telecommunications services must accept any 
interference caused by primary services operating in these bands.
