§  73.513   Noncommercial educational FM stations operating on unreserved
channels.

   (a) Noncommercial educational FM stations other than Class D
   (secondary) which operate on Channels 221 through 300 but which comply
   with §  73.503 as to licensing requirements and the nature of the
   service rendered, must comply with the provisions of the following
   sections of subpart B: § §  73.201 through 73.213 (Classification of FM
   Broadcast Stations and Allocations of Frequencies) and such other
   sections of subpart B as are made specially applicable by the
   provisions of this subpart C. Stations in Alaska authorized before
   August 11, 1982, using Channels 261-300 need not meet the minimum
   effective radiated power requirement specified in §  73.211(a). In all
   other respects, stations operating on Channels 221 through 300 are to
   be governed by the provisions of this subpart and not subpart B.

   (b) When a noncommercial educational applicant is among mutually
   exclusive applications for an unreserved FM channel, the mutually
   exclusive applications will be considered pursuant to Subpart
   I—Competitive Bidding Procedures and not Subpart K—Application and
   Selection Procedures On Reserved Noncommercial Educational Channels.
