Here's the rest of it;

Subpart C -- Intentional Radiators - 
?15.209   Radiated emission limits; general requirements.

(a) Except as provided elsewhere in this subpart, 
the emissions from an intentional radiator shall 
not exceed the field strength levels specified in the following table:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                              Measurement
          Frequency (MHz)                Field strength         distance
                                       (microvolts/meter)       (meters)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
0.009-0.490......................  2400/F(kHz)                      300
0.490-1.705......................  24000/F(kHz)                      30
1.705-30.0.......................  30                                30
30-88............................  100 **                             3
88-216...........................  150 **                             3
216-960..........................  200 **                             3
Above 960........................  500                                3
------------------------------------------------------------------------
** Except as provided in paragraph (g), fundamental emissions from
   intentional radiators operating under this section shall not be
   located in the frequency bands 54-72 MHz, 76-88 MHz, 174-216 MHz or
   470-806 MHz. However, operation within these frequency bands is
   permItted under other sections of this part, e.g., ?? 15.231
   and 15.241.
