Sec.  22.1007   Channels for offshore radiotelephone systems.

   The channels listed in this section are allocated for paired assignment to
   transmitters located in the specified geographical zones that provide
   offshore radiotelephone service. All channels have a bandwidth of 20 kHz and
   are designated by their center frequencies in MegaHertz.

   (a) Zone A—Southern Louisiana. The geographical area in Zone A is bounded as
   follows:

   From longitude W.87 °45' on the East to longitude W.94 °00' on the West and
   from the 4.8 kilometer (3 mile) limit along the Gulf of Mexico shoreline on
   the North to the limit of the Outer Continental Shelf on the South.

   (1) These channels may be assigned for use by offshore central (base/fixed)
   or subscriber stations (fixed, temporary fixed, surface and/or airborne
   mobile) as indicated, for voice-grade general communications:

   (8) Interstitial channels. Interstitial channels are those with center
   frequencies offset by  ±12.5 kHz from the listed center frequencies. The FCC
   may assign interstitial channels to offshore stations in Zone A subject to
   the following conditions:

   (i) Offshore stations transmitting on interstitial channels must be located
   east of W.92 ° longitude.

   (ii) Operations on interstitial channels are considered to be secondary to
   operations on channels with the listed center frequencies.

   (iii) Offshore stations operating on interstitial channels must be used only
   for voice grade general communications or to provide for private line
   service.

   Note to paragraph (a) of  Sec. 22.1007: These channels are contained in UHF TV
   Channel 17.

   (b) Zone B—Southern Louisiana—Texas. (1) The geographical area in Zone B is
   bounded as follows:

   From longitude W.87 °45' on the East to longitude W.95 °00' on the West and
   from the 4.8 kilometer (3 mile) limit along the Gulf of Mexico shoreline on
   the North to the limit of the Outer Continental Shelf on the South.

   (2) These channels may be assigned for use by offshore central (base/fixed)
   or subscriber stations (fixed, temporary fixed, surface and/or airborne
   mobile) as indicated, for voice-grade general communications and private
