         (c) a reference to any other legislative instrument is a reference to that other instrument as in force from time to time; and

         (d) a reference to any other kind of instrument or writing is a reference to that other kind of instrument or writing as in force or in existence at the time the reference was included in this plan.

         (a) the Attachment that determines the technical specifications for each transmitter; and
         (b) the frequency on which each transmitter is planned to operate and the approximate geographic area each transmitter is planned to serve; and
         (c) the technical specification number for each transmitter and, for a transmitter planned for the provision of a service under a broadcasting services bands licence, the licence number of that licence.
    (6) Each Attachment, other than an attachment that describes an area within which broadcasting services are to be available, determines the following technical specifications for a radiocommunications transmitter specified a Schedule:

         (d) the required polarisation of the transmission made by the transmitter;
         (e) the maximum antenna height for the transmitter;
         (f) the maximum effective radiated power (ERP) or cymomotive force (CMF), in each specified direction, of transmissions made by the transmitter;
         (g) any special conditions that apply to the operation of the transmitter;
