Schedule 4—Emission limits outside the band
(subsection 18(3))

1 Emission limits outside the band specified by written agreement

 (1) Where a written agreement specifying the maximum permitted level of radio emission exists between:

 (a) the licensee; and

 (b) all affected licensees of frequency-adjacent licences and area-adjacent licences;

 the licensee must comply with that specified maximum permitted level of radio emission.

 (2) Where there is no written agreement for the purposes of this clause in force, the licensee must comply with clauses 2 and 3.

2 Non spurious emission limits

 (1) Subject to subclause (3), the licensee must ensure that radiocommunications transmitters operated under the licence do not exceed the non spurious emission limits in subclause (2).

 (2) The non spurious emission limits in Table 1 apply:

 (a) at frequencies outside the upper or lower frequency limits for the spectrum licence;

 (b) offset from the upper or lower frequency limits for the spectrum licence;

 where:

 foffset: is the frequency offset from the upper or lower frequency limits for the spectrum licence. The closest -3dB point of the specified bandwidth closest to the upper and lower frequency limits for the spectrum licence is placed at foffset.

0 kHz ≤ foffset < 5 MHz                                                 100 kHz
            5 MHz ≤ foffset < 10 MHz  3                                 100 kHz
            foffset ≥ 10 MHz          2                                 1 MHz

 (3) Subclause (1) does not apply to a radiocommunications transmitter if the licence condition to be included in the licence in accordance with subsection 20(2) of this instrument applies to the transmitter.

 (4) Subject to subclause (6), the licensee must ensure that radiocommunications transmitters operated under the licence do not exceed the non spurious emission limits in subclause (5).

 (5) The non spurious emission limits in Table 2 apply:

 (a) at frequencies outside the upper or lower frequency limits for the spectrum licence; and

 (b) offset from the upper or lower frequency limits for the spectrum licence;

 where:

 foffset: is the frequency offset from the upper or lower frequency limits for the spectrum licence. The closest -3dB point of the specified bandwidth closest to the upper or lower frequency limits for the spectrum licence is placed at foffset.

1 MHz ≤ foffset < 20 MHz  -13                               1 MHz
foffset ≥ 20 MHz          -25                               1 MHz

 (6) Subclause (4) does not apply to a radiocommunications transmitter if the licence condition to be included in the
