  Sec.  73.6013   Protection of DTV stations.

   Class A TV stations must protect the DTV service that would be provided by
   the facilities specified in the DTV Table of Allotments in  Sec. 73.622 of this
   part, by authorized DTV stations and by applications that propose to expand
   DTV stations' allotted or authorized coverage contour in any direction, if
   such applications either were filed before December 31, 1999 or were filed
   between December 31, 1999 and May 1, 2000 by a DTV station licensee or
   permittee that had notified the Commission of its intent to “maximize” by
   December 31, 1999. Protection of these allotments, stations and applications
   must be based on not causing predicted interference within the service area
   described in  Sec. 73.622(e) of this part. The interference analysis is based on
   the methods described in  Sec.  Sec. 73.623(c)(2) through (c)(4) of this part, except
   that a Class A TV station must not cause a loss of service to 0.5 percent or
   more of the population predicted to receive service from the DTV allotment,
   station  or application. An application to change the facilities of an
   existing Class A TV station will not be accepted if it fails to protect
   these DTV allotments, stations and applications in accordance with this
   section.
