§  74.184   Rebroadcasts.

   (a) The term rebroadcast means reception by radio of the programs or
   other transmissions of a broadcast station, and the simultaneous or
   subsequent retransmission of such programs or transmissions by a
   broadcast station.

   (1) As used in this section, the word "program" includes any complete
   program or part thereof.

   (2) The transmission of a program from its point of origin to a
   broadcast station entirely by common carrier facilities, whether by
   wire line or radio, is not considered a rebroadcast.

   (3) The broadcasting of a program relayed by a remote broadcast pickup
   station is not considered a rebroadcast.

   (b) No licensee of an experimental broadcast station may retransmit the
   program of another U.S. broadcast station without the express authority
   of the originating station. A copy of the written consent of the
   licensee originating the program must be kept by the licensee of the
   experimental broadcast station retransmitting such program and made
   available to the FCC upon request.
