    Table 2: Minimum frequency response of earth receive station's RF filter on or after 16 July 2027

      (4A) For the purposes of Table 1 and Table 2 in subsection (4), for a licensed FSS earth receive station that is operated in the 3600–4200 MHz frequency band, the assumptions set out in subsections (4B) to (4D) apply.

      (4B) If the licence that authorises the station was issued before 16 July 2022, then, from the commencement of this subsection until 16 July 2027, the filter is assumed to apply only below the lower limit of the licence. In this subsection, lower limit of the licence means:

         (a) if the licensee holds only one licence authorising the operation of one relevant station on a particular centre frequency at a specific site and on a specific antenna, subject to a particular bandwidth – the frequency obtained by subtracting, from the particular centre frequency, half the particular bandwidth; or

         (b) if the licensee holds only one licence authorising the operation of more than one relevant station at the same site and on the same antenna, each on a particular centre frequency and subject to a particular bandwidth – the frequency obtained by subtracting, from the lowest of the particular centre frequencies, half the bandwidth for the device authorised to operate on the lowest of the particular centre frequencies; or

         (c) if the licensee holds more than one licence authorising the operation of one or more relevant stations at the same site and on the same antenna, each on a particular centre frequency and subject to a particular bandwidth – the frequency obtained by subtracting, from the lowest of the particular centre frequencies, half the bandwidth for the device authorised to operate on the lowest of the particular centre frequencies.

      (4C) If the licence that authorises the station was issued before 16 July 2022, then, on and after 16 July 2027, the filter is assumed to apply below the lower limit for the station and above the upper limit of the station. In this subsection:

        lower limit for the station means the frequency obtained by subtracting, from the particular centre or emission frequency specified in the licence for the station, half the particular bandwidth specified in the licence for the station.

        upper limit for the station means the frequency obtained by adding, to the particular
