Sec. 73.3516 Specification of facilities.
(a) An application for facilities in the AM, FM, TV or Class A TV broadcast
services, or low power TV service shall be limited to one frequency, or
channel, and no application will be accepted for filing if it requests an
alternate frequency or channel. Applications specifying split frequency AM
operations using one frequency during daytime hours complemented by a
different frequency during nighttime hours will not be accepted for filing.
(b) An application for facilities in the experimental and auxiliary
broadcast services may request the assignment of more than one frequency if
consistent with applicable rules in Part 74. Such applications must specify
the frequency or frequencies requested and may not request alternate
frequencies.
(c) An application for a construction permit for a new broadcast station,
the facilities for which are specified in an outstanding construction permit
or license, will not be accepted for filing.
(d) An application for facilities in the International broadcast service may
be filed without a request for specific frequency, as the FCC will assign
frequencies from time to time in accordance with Sec. Sec. 73.702 and 73.711.
(e) An application for construction permit for a new broadcast station or
for modification of construction permit or license of a previously
authorized broadcast station will not be accepted for filing if it is
mutually exclusive with an application for renewal of license of an existing
broadcast station unless the application for renewal of license is filed on
or before May 1, 1995 and unless the mutually exclusive construction permit
application is tendered for filing by the end of the first day of the last
full calendar month of the expiring license term. A petition to deny an
application for renewal of license of an existing broadcast station will be
considered as timely filed if it is tendered for filing by the end of the
first day of the last full calendar month of the expiring license term.
(1) If the license renewal application is not timely filed as prescribed in
Sec. 73.3539, the deadline for filing petitions to deny thereto is the 90th day
after the FCC gives public notice that it has accepted the late-filed
renewal application for filing. In the case of a renewal application filed
on or before May 1, 1995, if the license renewal application is not timely
filed as prescribed in Sec. 73.3539, the deadline for filing applications
mutually exclusive therewith is the 90th day after the FCC gives public
notice that it has accepted the late-filed renewal application for filing.
(2) If any deadline falls on a nonbusiness day, the cutoff shall be the
close of business of the first full business day thereafter.
(3) The dates when the licenses of all broadcast and broadcast auxiliary
services regularly expire are listed in Sec. Sec. 73.733, 73.1020 and 74.15.
