Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the notice, but is intended to indicate its general effect).
This notice prescribes that, pursuant to regulation-making powers of the Radiocommunications Act 1989, a general user radio licence is granted for the transmission on the frequencies specified in the licence by means of radiocommunication transmitters intended for local-area broadcasting and known as "Low Power FM Broadcasting Short Range Devices", or LPFM Broadcasting devices, in accordance with the terms, conditions and restrictions of this notice.
Transmissions under this licence must not cause interference to services in adjacent landmobile, broadcasting and aeronautical bands.
To assist LPFM operators understand the potential causes and mitigation of that interference, and the related terminology, the Ministry has provided information on the Radio Spectrum Management website
www.rsm.govt.nz
The information includes maps of the proposed LPFM exclusions zones that identify frequencies on which transmissions can cause interference.
