In accordance with these provisions, the use by mobile stations of damped waves (Type B) of a frequency below 375 kc/,> (wave length above 800 m.), shall be forbidden beginni!lg January 1, 1930. (2) In addition, no new installations of transmitters of Type B waves shall be made in mobile stations beginning January 1, 1930, except when these transmitters working on full power shall expend less than 300 watts measured at the input of the supply transformer at audible frequency. (3) Finally, the use of Type B waves of all frequencies shall be for- bidden beginnin~ January 1, 1940, except for transmitters fulfilling the same conditIOns re(;arding power as above. §2.

Type A2 or B. Ship stations must, in addition, be able to use the wave of 375 kc/s (800 m.), Type A2 (or B subject to the provisions of section 1 above). (2) Aircraft stations must be able to send and receive the wave of 333 kc/s (900 m.) Types A2 or A3 (or B subject to the provisions of section 1 above). §3.
