(b) paragraph 2.3 of Part A of MPT 1333 as measured by either of the methods described in paragraph 4.3.2 of Part B.

8.—(1) The level of spurious emissions from the transmitter in CB apparatus shall not exceed that specified in:—

(a) paragraph 4.5.4 of MPT 1320 as measured by the methods described in paragraphs 4.5.1, 4.5.2 and 4.5.3; or

(b) paragraph 2.4 of Part A of MPT 1333 as measured by the methods described in paragraphs 4.4.1, 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 of Part B.

(2) The level of spurious emissions from the receiver in CB apparatus shall not exceed that specified in:—

(a) paragraph 5.1.4 of MPT 1320 as measured by the methods described in paragraphs 5.1.2 and 5.1.3; or

(b) paragraph 3.5 of Part A of MPT 1333 as measured by the methods described in paragraphs 5.5.1, 5.5.2 and 5.5.3 of Part B.

9.  Where CB apparatus operates on any of the frequencies specified in paragraph 1.3 of Part A of MPT 1333 and is equipped with a terminal that can be used for the connection of an external antenna:—

(a) maximum usable sensitivity shall be that specified in paragraph 3.1 of Part A of MPT 1333 as measured by the method described in paragraph 5.1.2 of Part B;

(b) adjacent channel selectivity shall be that specified in paragraph 3.2 of Part A of MPT 1333 as measured by the method described in paragraph 5.2.2 of Part B;

(c) spurious response rejection shall be that specified in paragraph 3.3 of Part A of MPT 1333 as measured by the method described in paragraph 5.3.2 of Part B; and

(d) intermodulation response shall be that specified in paragraph 3.4 of Part A of MPT 1333 as measured by the method described in paragraph 5.4.2 of Part B.

Article 4

SCHEDULE 2

1.  CB apparatus which complies with the requirements of Schedule 1 to this Order and which operates:—

(a) on any of the frequencies specified in paragraph 1.3 of MPT 1320 shall be marked as follows:—

; and

(b) on any of the frequencies specified in paragraph 1.3 of Part A of MPT 1333 shall be marked as follows:—

(i) where the apparatus has been approved under section 84 of the 1984 Act; or

(ii) as specified in paragraph (i) where the apparatus has been approved in a country listed in the Annex to this Schedule before being approved under section 84 of the 1984 Act except that the symbol “GB” shall be replaced with the relevant symbol listed in the Annex to indicate the country in which approval has first been obtained.

2.  The marks described in sub-paragraphs 1(a) and (b) shall:—

(a) conform with the test of durability specified in sub-clause 7.14 of British Standard 5850: 1981;
