Fcc Licensing - Kustom Signals Directional Golden Eagle II Operator's Manual

Section 11—FCC Licensing
11.1 FCC - RADAR UNIT LICENSING AMENDED
(PART 90)
The Commission has eliminated the requirement for local
governmental entities licensed in the Public Safety Radio
services to obtain a separate authorization for radar speed
detection devices.
This change reduces paperwork for the Commission's
licensing staff and for police and other local government
units, which no longer have to apply for new radar
authorizations or modify or renew existing licenses and may
operate speed detection devices as part of their base/mobile
communications systems.
To provide the Commission with a record of such units in
use, the licensees are required to list the number of speed
detection units and the frequencies on which they operate at
the time of renewal of their land mobile authorization.
Ordinarily, this would be once every five years and would
not be a significant addition to the renewal process, the
Commission noted.
This action became effective February 1, 1983.
If the owning department does not hold a Public Safety
Radio license, but is dispatched by another agency, the
owning department will need to obtain a Public Safety
Radio license from the FCC. Filing FCC form 574 and
obtaining a separate license will be required before placing
the radar into service.
