§  97.103   Station licensee responsibilities.

   (a) The station licensee is responsible for the proper operation of the
   station in accordance with the FCC Rules. When the control operator is
   a different amateur operator than the station licensee, both persons
   are equally responsible for proper operation of the station.

   (b) The station licensee must designate the station control operator.
   The FCC will presume that the station licensee is also the control
   operator, unless documentation to the contrary is in the station
   records.

   (c) The station licensee must make the station and the station records
   available for inspection upon request by an FCC representative. When
   deemed necessary by a District Director to assure compliance with the
   FCC Rules, the station licensee must maintain a record of station
   operations containing such items of information as the District
   Director may require in accord with § 0.314(x) of the FCC Rules.
