   ^1The power is measured at the transmitter output terminals and the
   type of power is determined according to the emission designator as
   follows:

   (i) Mean power (pY) for amplitude modulated emissions and transmitting
   both sidebands using unmodulated full carrier.

   (ii) Peak envelope power (pX) for all emission designators other than
   those referred to in paragraph (i) of this note.

   ^2Power and antenna height are restricted to the minimum necessary to
   achieve the required service.

   ^3Transmitter power may be increased to overcome line and duplexer
   losses but must not exceed 25 watts delivered to the antenna.

   ^4Frequency, emission, and maximum power will be determined after
   coordination with appropriate Government agencies.

   ^5To be used with airborne marine equipment certificated for part 80
   (ship) and used in accordance with part 87.

   ^6Applicable onIy to marine frequencies used for public correspondence.

   ^7Frequency, emission, and maximum power will be determined by
   appropriate standards during the certification process.

   ^8Power may not exceed 60 watts per carrier, as measured at the input
   of the antenna subsystem, including any installed diplexer. The maximum
   EIRP may not exceed 2000 watts per carrier.

   ^9Excludes automatic link establishment.

   ^10Power is limited to 0.5 watt, but may not exceed 2 watts when
   station is used in an automatic unattended mode.
