transmitter that forms part of an amateur station is subject to the following
conditions:

   (a)  that the licensee must not, when communicating with another amateur
        station, transmit any messages other than:

        (i)    messages of an unimportant character relating to experiments
               about radio emissions; or

        (ii)   messages consisting of remarks of a personal nature;

   (b)  that the licensee must not, on behalf of a third party, transmit
        messages:

        (i)    that directly or indirectly enable any person to obtain a
               financial gain or other reward; or

        (ii)   that relate to the commercial or financial affairs of any
               person;

   (c)  that the licensee must not transmit messages to an amateur station in
        a foreign country if the Spectrum Manager publishes a notice in the
        Gazette to the effect that the government of that country has given
        notice that it objects to the transmission and reception of messages
        between amateur stations in that country and amateur stations outside
        that country;

   (d)  that, in any case, the licensee must not transmit messages to an
        amateur station in that other country on behalf of a third party,
        other than an amateur operator, unless the government of that country
        has made a special arrangement with Australia for the transmission and
        reception of messages, on behalf of third parties, between
        amateur stations in Australia and amateur stations in that country.
