If you get a spectrum licence under section 145, you must pay the Secretary. You pay either an annual levy or a one-off amount. The annual levy is calculated under section 150, or the one-off amount is calculated under section 151. You also pay any fees for the spectrum licence under regulations made under section 135. The one-off payment is due on a specific date, depending on the type of frequency. For some frequencies, you pay on 30 June 1992, and for others, you pay on 30 September 1995.
