§ 22.575   Use of mobile channel for remote control of station functions.

   Carriers  may  remotely  control  station functions (e.g. shut down or
   reactivate base transmitters, turn aviation obstruction warning lights on or
   off,  etc.) using a control transmitter operating on a mobile channel,
   subject to the conditions in this section and in § 22.567(h).

   (a) The control transmitter must be capable of overriding transmissions from
   subscriber-operated  transmitters  if  necessary.  Subscriber-operated
   transmitters  must  not  be  capable  of being used to deliberately or
   accidentally prevent the licensee from controlling the station.

   (b)  The  licensee must implement measures designed to prevent station
   functions from being controlled by persons not authorized by the licensee to
   control the station.

   (c) The control transmitter location must be within the composite service
   contour of the licensee's authorized station on the paired base channel.
