Which amateur stations are eligible to be telecommand stations of space stations, subject to the privileges of the class of operator license held by the control operator of the station?

A telecommand station is responsible for transmitting control commands that manage the functions of a space station. Under FCC Part 97.211, any amateur station designated by the space station's licensee is eligible to act as a telecommand station, provided the operation remains within the frequency privileges of the control operator's license class. Regulatory and advisory bodies like the ITU or AMSAT do not legally designate telecommand stations for individual satellites. It is entirely up to the actual space station licensee to grant this authorization to specific amateur stations.
