§  2.901   Basis and purpose.

   (a) In order to carry out its responsibilities under the Communications
   Act and the various treaties and international regulations, and in
   order to promote efficient use of the radio spectrum, the Commission
   has developed technical standards for radio frequency equipment and
   parts or components thereof. The technical standards applicable to
   individual types of equipment are found in that part of the rules
   governing the service wherein the equipment is to be operated. In
   addition to the technical standards provided, the rules governing the
   service may require that such equipment be authorized under Supplier's
   Declaration of Conformity or receive a grant of certification from a
   Telecommunication Certification Body.

   (b) Sections 2.906 through 2.1077 describe the procedure for a
   Supplier's Declaration of Conformity and the procedures to be followed
   in obtaining certification and the conditions attendant to such a
   grant.
