I have to authorize the installation of a new FM sound broadcasting or television station in a planned band. What should I do? There are two possibilities:
There is still an assignment free in the Plan in question, and the license can be issued to the operator immediately if the characteristics entered in the Plan will enable the applicantīs needs to be met. If so, the assignment is notified under Article 11 of the Radio Regulations for entry in the Master Register. If not, the characteristics of the assignment in the Plan will first have to be modified (procedure under Article 4 of the relevant agreement concerned).
There is no assignment free in the Plan in question. You then have to initiate the plan modification procedure in order to add a new assignment (procedure under Article 4 of the relevant agreement). Before doing so, it will be necessary to find the appropriate frequency and see how it is likely to affect the existing Plan and vice versa. Then coordinate with adjacent countries before notifying the Bureau of the assignment. After that, wait for publication of the assignment in part B of the appropriate special section before issuing a license to the operator and completing the procedure for registration of the assignment in the MIFR by notifying it under Article 11 of the Radio Regulations.
If you have not found the answer to your question, send it to the Radiocommunication Bureau at the following address: brmail@itu.int
