The enclosed application as described in Section 2 above is approved for operational use subject to the guidance below. 2. For the intended use in the aeronautical and land mobile services, the subject system is in accordance with the US Table of Frequency Allocations. 3. Based on the information provided, the subject equipment complies with the frequency stability requirements of NTIA Manual Section 5.2.1, as well as the out-of-band, harmonic and spurious level requirements of NTIA Manual Section 5.2.2.2 4. Continued compliance with the provisions of the standards cited in paragraph 3 above, is mandatory. 5. Frequency assignment requests must be submitted using Standard Frequency Action Format (SFAF) and be coordinated with the cognizant Area Frequency Coordinator (AFC) in accordance with ACP-190 SUPP-1(C), Guide to Frequency Planning, prior to activation. 6. Operation of the subject equipment shall be in accordance with applicable Military Communications-Electronics Board(MCEB)/NTIA channeling plans. Proposals for frequency assignments that are non-compliant with the applicable channeling plan may be difficult or impossible to obtain.

NCNB GUIDANCE Continued 7. Operational use within various theater commands outside the United States has not been approved. Approval for operational use in the intended deployment area requires appropriate COCOM statement (s) that the subject system has been deemed frequency supportable. Spectrum supportability comments can be found in the Host Nation Spectrum Worldwide Database Online, https://hnswdo.disa.mil/. 8. The subject equipment has been coordinated with the NTIA Spectrum Planning Subcommittee (SPS). The following additional guidance has been provided: a) Navy operates this system in accordance with the provisions of Footnote G27 to the National. Table of Frequency Allocations, which limits fixed and mobile services in the frequency band 375-386 MHz to the military services. b) Navy coordinates all frequency assignment actions for the frequency band 375- 386 MHz with the Military Assignment Group, in accordance with Section 1.3.2 of the NTIA Manual c) Navy ensures that personnel are protected from radiation levels that exceed generally accepted exposure criteria.
