§  27.321   Mutually exclusive applications.

   (a) Two or more pending applications are mutually exclusive if the
   grant of one application would effectively preclude the grant of one or
   more of the others under the Commission's rules governing the Wireless
   Communications Services involved. The Commission uses the general
   procedures in this section for processing mutually exclusive
   applications in the Wireless Communications Services.

   (b) An application will be entitled to comparative consideration with
   one or more conflicting applications only if the Commission determines
   that such comparative consideration will serve the public interest.
