Sec.  27.2   Permissible communications.

   

   (a) Miscellaneous wireless communications services. Except as provided
   in  paragraph  (b)  of this section and subject to technical and other
   rules  contained  in  this  part,  a  licensee  in the frequency bands
   specified  in  Sec. 27.5  may provide any services for which its frequency
   bands are allocated, as set forth in the non-Federal Government column
   of the Table of Allocations in Sec. 2.106 of this chapter (column 5).

   (b)  746-747  MHz,  776-777  MHz,  762-764  MHz and 792-794 MHz bands.
   Operators in the 746-747 MHz, 776-777 MHz, 762-764 MHz and 792-794 MHz
   bands may not employ a cellular system architecture. A cellular system
   architecture  is  defined,  for  purposes  of  this  part, as one that
   consists  of  many  small  areas  or  cells  (segmented  from a larger
   geographic  service area), each of which uses its own base station, to
   enable frequencies to be reused at relatively short distances.

   (c)  Satellite  DARS. Satellite digital audio radio service (DARS) may
   be  provided  using  the  2310-2320 and 2345-2360 MHz bands. Satellite
   DARS  service shall be provided in a manner consistent with part 25 of
   this chapter.
