Riepilogo

The Commission has proposed rules and policies implementing the international Global Mobile Personal Communications by Satellite (GMPCS) Memorandum of Understanding and Arrangements adopted last spring by the International Telecommunications Union. Among other things, the Notice proposes to apply our current part 2 equipment certification procedures to terminals used in conjunction with authorized GMPCS systems that are for sale or lease and use in the United States. It also contemplates a customs procedure for allowing terminals to be carried into the United States.
