§ 73.61 AM directional antenna field strength measurements.
(a) Each AM station using a directional antenna with monitoring point
locations specified in the instrument of authorization must make field
strength measurements as often as necessary to ensure that the field at each
of those points does not exceed the value specified in the station
authorization. Additionally, stations not having an approved sampling system
must make the measurements once each calendar quarter at intervals not
exceeding 120 days. The provision of this paragraph supersedes any schedule
specified on a station license issued prior to January 1, 1986. The results
of the measurements are to be entered into the station log pursuant to the
provisions of § 73.1820.
(b) If the AM license was granted on the basis of field strength
measurements performed pursuant to § 73.151(a), partial proof of performance
measurements using the procedures described in § 73.154 must be made whenever
the licensee has reason to believe that the radiated field may be exceeding
the limits for which the station was most recently authorized to operate.
(c) A station may be directed to make a partial proof of performance by the
FCC whenever there is an indication that the antenna is not operating as
authorized.
