                1.              For the area mentioned in clause (2), the Schedule mentioned in that clause specifies the radiocommunications transmitters planned for the provision of broadcasting services in that area by reference to:
                    1.                 the Attachment that determines the technical specifications for each transmitter; and
                    2.                 the frequency on which each transmitter is planned to operate and the approximate geographic area each transmitter is planned to serve; and
                    3.                 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.

                1.              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 in a Schedule:
                    1.                 subject to clause (5), a description, and geographic coordinates, of the location (nominal location) from where the radiocommunications transmitter must be operated;
                    2.                 the frequency on which the transmitter must be operated;
                    3.                 the frequency band containing that frequency, and the mode of transmission the transmitter must use;

                    1.                 the required polarisation of the transmission made by the transmitter;
                    2.                 the maximum antenna height for the transmitter;
                    3.                  the maximum effective radiated power (ERP) or cymomotive force (CMF), in each specified direction, of transmissions made by the transmitter;
                    4.                 any special conditions that apply to the operation of the transmitter;
                    5.                 any circumstances that must exist for the transmitter to be able to be operated, or that prohibit the transmitter from being operated.

                 1.                     A radiocommunications transmitter may be operated from a site other than a nominal location (alternative site) if the operation from the alternative site complies with any requirements set out for the transmitter and for the operation of the transmitter in guidelines made under section 33 of the Act in relation to operation from an alternative site.

                    Note: Guidelines under section 33 of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 are
