§  74.16   Temporary extension of station licenses.

   Where there is pending before the Commission any application,
   investigation, or proceeding which, after hearing, might lead to or
   make necessary the modification of, revocation of, or the refusal to
   renew an existing auxiliary or experimental broadcast station license
   or a television broadcast translator station license, the Commission in
   its discretion, may grant a temorary extension of such license:
   Provided, however, That no such temporary extension shall be construed
   as a finding by the Commission that the operation of any radio station
   thereunder will serve public interest, convenience, and necessity
   beyond the express terms of such temporary extension of license: And
   provided further, That such temporary extension of license will in no
   wise affect or limit the action of the Commission with respect to any
   pending application or proceeding.
