    (a) Statutory materials. Laws pertaining to communications are 
contained in Title 47 of the United States Code. Laws enacted since the 
printing of the last supplement to the Code are printed individually as 
slip laws, and these are compiled chronologically in the United States 
Statutes at Large. The Acts of Congress from 1910-62 pertaining to radio 
have been compiled in a single volume, Radio Laws of the United States 
(1962 ed.). See Secs. 0.405 and 0.414.
    (b) Regulatory materials--(1) The Code of Federal Regulations. The 
rules and regulations of the Commission are contained in chapter I of 
title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Chapter I is divided into 
the following four subchapters, which may be purchased separately: 
Subchapter A--General; Subchapter B--Common Carrier Services; Subchapter 
C--Broadcast Radio Services; and Subchapter D--Private Radio Services. 
Most persons will find that they need subchapter A, containing the 
general rules, and one of the other volumes, depending upon their area 
of interest. These four volumes are revised annually to reflect changes 
in the rules. See Secs. 0.406, 0.412, and 0.415. The Code of Federal 
Regulations is fully indexed and contains numerous finding aids. See 1 
CFR appendix C.
    (2) The Federal Register. As rules are adopted, amended, or 
repealed, the changes are published in the Federal Register, which is 
published daily except on legal holidays. Notices of proposed rule 
making, other rule making documents, statements of general policy, 
interpretations of general applicability, and other Commission documents 
having general applicability and legal effect are also published in the 
Federal Register. Summaries of the full Notices of proposed rule making 
and other rule making decisions adopted by the Commission constitute 
rulemaking documents for purposes of Federal Register publication. The 
Federal Register is fully indexed and contains numerous findings aids.
