This Order grants a request from the American Radio Relay League, Inc.,
(ARRL) for a temporary waiver1 to allow amateur stations to use additional emission types when
transmitting voice or data communications.2 Specifically, ARRL requests a waiver to permit amateur
stations to transmit communications on amateur service channels above 30 MHz using single time-slot Time
Division Multiple Access (TDMA) systems currently on the market and used by stations in other services,
pending the resolution of a related rulemaking proceeding.3 For the reasons set forth below, we grant the
waiver request. In addition, we dismiss as moot a previously-filed request from ARRL for clarification of
the rules as they apply to TDMA digital emissions.
