[3] Schedule 1, item 22

substitute

22	Wireless audio transmitters	174–230	3 mW		1. Emission must be frequency modulated and have a maximum bandwidth of 330 kHz.
					2. Transmission in a TV channel must not originate in the licence area of a TV broadcasting station (including a repeater or translator station) operating in the same channel.
					3. When transmitting in an unused TV channel, and in the coverage area of a TV broadcasting station (including a repeater or translator station) operating in an adjacent TV channel, the channel centre frequency of the wireless audio transmitter must be at least 200 kHz above the upper edge of the adjacent TV channel, or 400 kHz below the lower edge of the adjacent TV channel.
22A	Wireless audio transmitters	520–820		100 mW	1. Emission must be frequency modulated and have a maximum bandwidth of 330 kHz.
					2. Transmission in a broadcasting services bands channel must not originate in the coverage area of a broadcasting station (including a repeater or translator station) operating in the same channel.
					3. The origin of a transmission in a broadcasting services bands channel must be such that the resulting field strength at the nearest boundary of the coverage area of a broadcasting station using the channel does not exceed 30 dBuV/m.
					4. When transmitting in an unused broadcasting services bands channel, and in the coverage area of a broadcasting station (including a repeater or translator station) operating in an adjacent channel, the channel centre frequency of the wireless audio transmitter must be at least 400 kHz above the upper edge of the adjacent channel, or 400 kHz below the lower edge of the adjacent channel.

[4] Schedule 1, after item 45B

insert

Radio Local Area Network transmitters
