Sec.  73.6011   Protection of TV broadcast stations.

   Class  A  TV  stations  must protect authorized TV broadcast stations,
   applications for minor changes in authorized TV broadcast stations filed on
   or before November 29, 1999, and applications for new TV broadcast stations
   that  had been cut-off without competing applications or that were the
   winning bidder in a TV broadcast station auction as of that date, or that
   were the proposed remaining applicant in a group of mutually-exclusive
   applications for which a settlement agreement was on file as of that date.
   Protection  of  these  stations  and applications must be based on the
   requirements specified in  Sec. 74.705 of this chapter. An application to change
   the facilities of an existing Class A TV station will not be accepted if it
   fails to protect these TV broadcast stations and applications pursuant to
   the requirements specified in  Sec. 74.705 of this chapter.
