Technical Data Schedule for the Paging, Rural,

Air-ground (General Aviation), and

Offshore Radiotelephone Services (Part 22)


Form FCC 601, Schedule J, is a supplementary schedule for use with the FCC Application for Radio Service Authorization: Wireless Telecommunications Bureau and/or Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau, FCC 601 Main Form. This schedule is used to apply for an authorization to operate a radio station in the Paging, Rural, Air-ground (General Aviation), and Offshore Radiotelephone Services, as defined in 47 CFR, Part 22. It is also used to amend a pending application or modify an existing license in these services. Additionally, this schedule is used by auction winners that must file site‑specific technical data for international coordination or for an environmental assessment of a particular site. The FCC 601 Main Form must be filed in conjunction with this schedule.


You must file technical information for each fixed location, including the antenna structures and/or each mobile transmit location or each temporary fixed station location using FCC 601, Schedule D, Schedule for Station Locations and Antenna Structures. Mobile and temporary fixed station locations only apply to Rural Radio (CR), Offshore (CO), and BETRS (CB) radio services. It is recommended that you complete Schedule D prior to completing Schedule J.



IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING LOCATION, ANTENNA, AND CONTROL POINT NUMBERS: To identify existing locations, antennas, or control points, you must use the location, antenna, and control point numbers assigned by the Universal Licensing System (ULS). These numbers may not be identical to the location, antenna, and control point numbers on your current authorization if that authorization was not issued by the Universal Licensing System. If you are unsure of the location, antenna, or control point number that corresponds to a particular location, antenna, or control point, you can query the ULS for the most up-to-date information regarding your authorization. To query the ULS license database for your call sign, point your web browser to http://wireless.fcc.gov/uls and click on Search - Licenses. Alternatively, you may call (877) 480‑3201 (TTY 717-338-2824) for assistance.

Control Points


This section must be completed only when a control point is to be added, modified, or deleted. If you are adding a new control point, complete all items in this section for each control point to be added. If you are modifying an existing control point, in addition to Items 1 and 2, complete only the items that have changed for the control point. If you are deleting a control point, only Items 1 and 2 are required. Control points that are currently licensed under this call sign by the FCC will continue to be shown on the Authorization as is, unless a specific action is requested in this section.


Item 1 This item indicates the action the filer wants the FCC to take on the specified control point. Enter ‘A’ for Add, ‘M’ for Modify, or ‘D’ for Delete.


Item 2 If the control point has been previously licensed under this call sign to the Applicant by the FCC, enter its FCC-assigned control point number (see Important Information Regarding Location, Antenna, and Control Point Numbers on page 1 of these instructions). For a new control point, assign a temporary code to represent the control point. The assigned code should begin with C to indicate it is a control point and end with a number to uniquely identify it (e.g., C1, C2, C3, etc.). The FCC will assign an official number to the new control point, which will appear on the Authorization.


Item 3 Enter the street address, city or town, county/borough/parish or equivalent entity, and state of the control point. Refer to FCC 601 Main Form Instructions, Appendix II, for a list of valid state, jurisdiction, and area abbreviations.
