53 Adjustment for earth licence – co-located and co-frequency earth stations and earth receive stations

If: (a) a Part 12 licence is an earth licence; and (b) the licence authorises the operation of a fixed earth station (the first station); and (c) for the first station: (i) the density type for the relevant spectrum access is the high density type, and the station is located at a fixed point not more than 500 metres from the fixed location of either another earth station or an earth receive station; or (ii) the density type for the relevant spectrum access is the medium density type, and the station is located at a fixed point not more than 1 kilometre from the fixed location of either another earth station or an earth receive station; or (iii) the density type for the relevant spectrum access is the low density type or the remote density type, and the spectrum is located at a fixed point not more than 2 kilometres from the fixed location of either another earth station or an earth receive station; and (d) the licence authorises the operation of the first station on a frequency that is the same as, or on a frequency band that overlaps with, a frequency on which the other earth station, or the earth receive station, is authorised to operate; subject to item 55, the annual amount for the spectrum access is the amount worked out under item 50, multiplied by 70 per cent.

Note: The licence that authorises the operation of the first station does not need to authorise the operation of each station mentioned in item 53. The apparatus licence that authorises the operation of the other earth station, or the earth receive station, may be held by a different person than the licensee of the Part 12 licence.
