  § 80.70   Special conditions relative to coast station VHF facilities.

   (a) Coast stations which transmit on the same radio channel above 150 MHz
   must minimize interference by reducing radiated power, by decreasing antenna
   height or by installing directional antennas. Coast stations at locations
   separated by less than 241 kilometers (150 miles) which transmit on the same
   radio channel above 150 MHz must also consider a time-sharing arrangement.
   The Commission may order station changes if agreement cannot be reached
   between the involved licensees.

   (b) Coast stations which transmit on a radio channel above 150 MHz and are
   located within interference range of any station within Canada or Mexico
   must minimize interference to the involved foreign station(s), and must
   notify the Commission of any station changes.

   (c) A VHF (156-162 MHz) public coast licensee initially authorized on any of
   the channels listed in the table in § 80.371(c)(1), or an AMTS licensee
   initially authorized on any of the channel blocks listed in the table in
   § 80.385(a)(2), may transfer or assign its channel(s), or channel block(s),
   to another entity. If the proposed transferee or assignee is the geographic
   area  licensee for the geographic area to which the frequency block is
   allocated, such transfer or assignment will be deemed to be in the public
   interest. However, such presumption will be rebuttable.

   [ 51 FR 31213 , Sept. 2, 1986, as amended at  63 FR 40063 , July 27, 1998;  67 FR 48564 , July 25, 2002]
