On December 23rd, MTC published a normative, Ministerial Resolution No. 1328-2021-MTC / 01.03 to establish that mobile phones that have the FM receiver, have the functionality active. Mobile equipment trading houses must enable and maintain active radio service reception functionality in the FM band on cell phones regardless of the technologies available for this equipment.
The users will be able to use the sound broadcasting service for the Modulated Frequency (FM) band from their cell phones. In this way, the population will be able to access the recommendations, advice, or other information associated with emergencies.
Interested parties would be able to submit their comments on the measures proposed in the normative proposal for 30 business days (Jan 23, 2022), which must be sent to the main headquarters of the MTC with attention to the General Directorate of Policies and Regulation in Communications, located in Jirón Zorritos No. 1203, or to the email gtorrest@mtc.gob.pe.
