Sec.  95.603   Certification required.

   (a) Each GMRS transmitter (a transmitter that operates or is intended to
   operate at a station authorized in the GMRS) must be certificated.

   (b) Each R/C transmitter (a transmitter that operates or is intended to
   operate at a station authorized in the R/C) must be certificated, except one
   that transmits only in the 26–27 MHz frequency band and is crystal
   controlled (where the transmitted frequency is established by a crystal (a
   quartz piezo-electric element)).

   (c) Each CB transmitter (a transmitter that operates or is intended to
   operate at a station authorized in the CB) must be certificated. No CB
   transmitter certificated pursuant to an application filed prior to September
   10, 1976, shall be manufactured or marketed.

   (d) Each FRS unit (a transmitter that operates or is intended to operate in
   the FRS) must be certified for use in the FRS in accordance with Subpart J
   of Part 2 of this chapter.

   (e) Each Low Power Radio Service transmitter (a transmitter that operates or
   is intended to operate in the LPRS) must be certificated.

   (f) Each Medical Implant Communications Service transmitter (a transmitter
   that operates or is intended to operate in the MICS) must be certificated
   except for medical implant transmitters that are not marketed for use in the
   United States, but which otherwise comply with the MICS technical
   requirements and are operated in the United States by individuals who have
   traveled to the United States from abroad. Medical implant transmitters (as
   defined in appendix 1 to subpart E of part 95 of this chapter) are subject
   to the radiofrequency radiation exposure requirements specified in  Sec.  Sec. 1.1307
   and 2.1093 of this chapter, as appropriate. Applications for equipment
   authorization of devices operating under this section must contain a finite
   difference time domain (FDTD) computational modeling report showing
   compliance with these provisions for fundamental emissions. The Commission
   retains the discretion to request the submission of specific absorption rate
   measurement data.

   (g) Each Multi-Use Radio Service transmitter (a transmitter that operates or
   is intended to operate in the MURS) must be certificated in accordance with
   Subpart J of Part 2 of this chapter, Provided however, that those radio
   units certificated as of November 12, 2002 need not be recertificated.

   (h) Each Dedicated Short-Range Communications Service On-Board Unit
   (DSRCS-OBU) that operates or is intended to operate in the DSRCS
   (5.850–5.925 GHz) must be certified in accordance with subpart L of this
   part and subpart J of part 2 of this chapter.
