Section 112-18-10 - Duties of sending racetrack(a) A simulcasting licensee that simulcasts races conducted by the licensee acts as a sending racetrack on the dates the races or program are conducted and simulcast. (b) Each sending racetrack shall be responsible for the content of the simulcast and shall use all reasonable efforts to present a simulcast which offers the viewers an exemplary depiction of the performance, continuity of programming between racing events, and, if it is also acting at the host facility for a combined wagering pool, a periodic display of wagering information. (c) Each sending racetrack shall provide transmission equipment of acceptable broadcast quality that does not interfere with the closed-circuit television system of the receiving location. (d) The commission may require a simulcasting licensee to scramble its signal. If so required, each simulcast shall be encrypted using a time displacement decoding algorithm encryption system or an equivalent encryption system approved by the commission. (e) Unless otherwise permitted by the commission, each simulcast must contain in its video content: (2) a digital display of the actual time of day at the sending racetrack; (3) the name of the sending racetrack; (4) the number of the race being displayed; and (5) any other relevant information available to patrons at the host racetrack. (f) Before the beginning of the transmission of the first simulcast race or program of each day, each sending racetrack shall initiate a test program of its transmitter, encryption equipment and data communication to ensure proper operation of the system. If a test program run under this subsection is unsuccessful or indicates a malfunction of any component of the sending racetrack's system, the simulcasting licensee shall not transmit any races until a successful test program is completed.
