§ 95.209   (R/C Rule 9) What equipment may I use at my R/C station?

   (a) Your R/C station may transmit only with:

   (1) An FCC certificated R/C transmitter (certificated means the FCC has
   determined that certain radio equipment is capable of meeting recommended
   standards for operation); or

   (2) A non-certificated R/C transmitter on Channels 26.995-27.255 MHz if it
   complies with the technical standards (see part 95, subpart E).

   (3) Use of a transmitter outside of the band 26.955-27.255 MHz which is not
   certificated  voids  your  authority  to operate the station. Use of a
   transmitter in the band 26.995-27.255 MHz which does not comply with the
   technical standards voids your authority to operate the station.

   (b) You may examine a list of certificated transmitters on the FCC Web site
   at http://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/radio-control-rc-radio-service.

   (c) Your R/C station may transmit with a transmitter assembled from a kit.

   (d)  You  must  not make, or have made, any internal modification to a
   certificated transmitter. (See R/C Rule 22.) Any internal modification to a
   certificated  transmitter cancels the certification, and use of such a
   transmitter voids your authority to operate the station.
