§ 2.927   Limitations on grants.

   (a) A grant of equipment authorization is valid only when the FCC
   Identifier is permanently affixed on the device and remains effective
   until revoked or withdrawn, rescinded, surrendered, or a termination
   date is otherwise established by the Commission.

   (b) A grant of an equipment authorization signifies that the Commission
   has determined that the equipment has been shown to be capable of
   compliance with the applicable technical standards if no unauthorized
   change is made in the equipment and if the equipment is properly
   maintained and operated. The issuance of a grant of equipment
   authorization shall not be construed as a finding by the Commission
   with respect to matters not encompassed by the Commission's rules,
   especially with respect to compliance with 18 U.S.C. 2512.

   (c) No person shall, in any advertising matter, brochure, etc., use or
   make reference to an equipment authorization in a deceptive or
   misleading manner or convey the impression that such equipment
   authorization reflects more than a Commission determination that the
   device or product has been shown to be capable of compliance with the
   applicable technical standards of the Commission's rules.
