§ 95.1015   Disclosure policies.

   (a) Manufacturers of LPRS transmitters used for auditory assistance, health
   care assistance, and law enforcement tracking purposes must include with
   each transmitting device the following statement: “This transmitter is
   authorized by rule under the Low Power Radio Service (47 CFR part 95) and
   must not cause harmful interference to TV reception or United States Navy
   SPASUR  installations.  You do not need an FCC license to operate this
   transmitter.  This  transmitter  may only be used to provide: auditory
   assistance  to persons with disabilities, persons who require language
   translation, or persons in educational settings; health care services to the
   ill;  law  enforcement  tracking  services  under agreement with a law
   enforcement agency; or automated maritime telecommunications system (AMTS)
   network control communications. Two-way voice communications and all other
   types of uses not mentioned above are expressly prohibited.”

   (b)  Prior  to operating a LPRS transmitter for AMTS purposes, an AMTS
   licensee  must notify, in writing, each television station that may be
   affected by such operations, as defined in § 80.215(h) of this chapter. The
   notification provided with the station's license application is sufficient
   to satisfy this requirement if no new television stations would be affected.
