to communicate with the base station, supplementary base station, other land mobile stations and remote control stations in the system;
             (b) to transmit to the base station, supplementary base station and remote control stations using the receive frequency of the system's base station; and
             (c) to communicate with other land mobile stations using the transmit frequency of the system's base station.
18 Supplementary base stations
 (1) If an operator operates a supplementary base station in a land mobile system, the operator:
             (a) must not operate the station if its operation causes harmful interference to a service provided by another station;
             (b) must only operate the station to transmit using the transmit frequencies specified in the licence for the system's base station;
             (c) must only operate the station to improve the service reliability within a radius of 40 kilometres of the system's base station;
             (d) must not operate the station to extend the service area of the system's base station beyond 40 kilometres from the base station;
             (e) must not operate the station unless the licensee has notified the ACMA, in writing, about the location and the operating parameters of the station.
 (2) Subsection (3) applies if a supplementary base station is operated at:
             (a) a communal site; or
             (b) a site in, or adjacent to, the central business district of a city or town.
 (3) An operator must operate the station so that:
             (a) the level of all discrete spurious components caused by the station does not exceed minus 30 dBm when measured at the connection to the station's antenna; and
             (b) the broad band noise floor of the transmitter does not exceed minus 47 dBm in a 16 kHz bandwidth for frequency offsets greater than 300 kHz from the frequency specified in the licence when measured at the connection to the station's antenna.
19 Remote control stations
 (1) If an operator operates a remote control station in a land mobile system, the operator:
             (a) must not operate the station if its operation causes harmful interference to a service provided by another station;
             (b) must only operate the station to communicate with land mobile stations and overlay paging receivers in the system through the system's base station and supplementary base stations;
             (c) must only operate the station to transmit using the receive or transmit frequencies used by the land mobile stations in the system to communicate with the system's base station; and
             (d) must not operate the station using a transmitter power exceeding:
                 (i) the power specified in the licence; or
                 (ii) if no power is specified in the licence – 1 watt pY.
 (2) If a remote control station is located in, or adjacent to, a central business district
