Sec. 76.95  Exceptions.

    (a) The provisions of Secs. 76.92-76.94 shall not apply to a cable 
system serving fewer than 1,000 subscribers. Within 60 days following 
the provision of service to 1,000 subscribers, the operator of each such 
system shall file a notice to that effect with the Commission, and serve 
a copy of that notice on every television station that would be entitled 
to exercise network non-duplication protection against it.
    (b) Network non-duplication protection need not be extended to a 
higher priority station for one hour following the scheduled time of 
completion of the broadcast of a live sports event by that station or by 
a lower priority station against which a cable community unit would 
otherwise be required to provide non-duplication protection following 
the scheduled time of completion.
