Sec.  2.927   Limitations on grants.

   (a) A grant of equipment authorization is valid only when the FCC Identifier
   is permanently affixed on the device and remains effective until revoked or
   withdrawn, rescinded, surrendered, or a termination date is otherwise
   established by the Commission.

   (b) A grant of an equipment authorization signifies that the Commission has
   determined that the equipment has been shown to be capable of compliance
   with the applicable technical standards if no unauthorized change is made in
   the equipment and if the equipment is properly maintained and operated. The
   issuance of a grant of equipment authorization shall not be construed as a
   finding by the Commission with respect to matters not encompassed by the
   Commission's rules, especially with respect to compliance with 18 U.S.C.
   2512.

   (c) No person shall, in any advertising matter, brochure, etc., use or make
   reference to an equipment authorization in a deceptive or misleading manner
   or convey the impression that such equipment authorization reflects more
   than a Commission determination that the device or product has been shown to
   be capable of compliance with the applicable technical standards of the
   Commission's rules.
