§ 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.
