24 Conditions – purposes and transmissions

(1) A person must not operate an amateur repeater station otherwise than to: (a) receive signals and retransmit those signals; or (b) transmit a signal that identifies the station. (2) A person must not operate an amateur repeater station unless the station is incapable of transmitting a signal in the absence of a received signal.

Note: The ACMA will generally not afford interference protection to a person operating an amateur repeater station in relation to interference caused by the operation of a low interference potential radiocommunications device, the operation of which is authorised by a class licence.

(3) A person must not operate an amateur repeater station to transmit a signal from another amateur station (originating station) to a third amateur station if the person authorised to operate the originating station is not authorised to operate the originating station on the repeater output of the amateur repeater station.
