Sec.  2.933   Change in identification of equipment.

   (a) A new application for equipment authorization shall be filed whenever
   there is a change in the FCC Identifier for the equipment with or without a
   change  in design, circuitry or construction. However, a change in the
   model/type number or trade name performed in accordance with the provisions
   in  Sec. 2.924 of this chapter is not considered to be a change in identification
   and does not require additional authorization from the Commission.

   (b) An application filed pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section where no
   change  in  design, circuitry or construction is involved, need not be
   accompanied by a resubmission of equipment or measurement or test data
   customarily required with a new application, unless specifically requested
   by the Commission. In lieu thereof, the applicant shall attach a statement
   setting out:

   (1) The original identification used on the equipment prior to the change in
   identification.

   (2) The date of the original grant of the equipment authorization.

   (3) How the equipment bearing the modified identification differs from the
   original equipment.

   (4) Whether the original test results continue to be representative of and
   applicable to the equipment bearing the changed identification.

   (5) The photographs required by  Sec. 2.1033(b)(7) or  Sec. 2.1033(c)(12) showing the
   exterior appearance of the equipment, including the operating controls
   available to the user and the identification label. Photographs of the
   construction,  the component placement on the chassis, and the chassis
   assembly are not required to be submitted unless specifically requested by
   the Commission.

   (c) If the change in the FCC Identifier also involves a change in design or
   circuitry which falls outside the purview of a permissive change described
   in  Sec. 2.1043, a complete application shall be filed pursuant to  Sec. 2.911.
