Abstract: The information collection describes station identification requirements under Section 90.647 pursuant to Section 90.425(e). This section informs us that 929-930 MHz nationwide paging licensees or MTA or EA-based SMR licensees are exempt from meeting these identification requirements as opposed to all other CMRS providers. The remaining CMRS providers need comply only with the streamlined station identification requirements which amend requirements from once every 15 minutes to once an hour. Pursuant to Section 90.425(e)(3), CMRS stations grantd exclusive channels may transmit their call signals digitally. Specifically, these licensees must provide the Commission wiht inforamtion sufficient to decode the digital transmission to ascertain the transmitted call sign.
