   (a) A license for a low power TV or TV translator station may be issued to
   any qualified individual, organized group of individuals, broadcast station
   licensee, or local civil governmental body.

   (b) More than one low power TV or TV translator station may be licensed to

   area. Low power TV and TV translator stations are not counted for purposes
   of  Sec. 73.3555, concerning multiple ownership.

   (c) Only one channel will be assigned to each low power TV or TV translator

   (d) The FCC will not act on applications for new low power TV or TV
   translator stations, for changes in facilities of existing stations, or for
   changes in output channel tendered by displaced stations pursuant to
    Sec. 73.3572(a)(1), when such changes will result in a major change until the
   applicable time for filing a petition to deny has passed pursuant to
    Sec. 73.3584(c).

   (e) A proposal to change the primary TV station being retransmitted or an
   application of a licensed translator station to include low power TV station
   operation, i.e., program origination or subscription service will be subject
   only to a notification requirement.

   (f) Applications for transfer of ownership or control of a low power TV or
   TV translator station will be subject to petitions to deny.

   (g) A television broadcast booster station will be authorized only to the
   licensee or permittee of the television station whose signals the booster
   will rebroadcast, to areas within the Grade B contour of the primary
   station.

   (h) No numerical limit is placed on the number of booster stations that may
   be licensed to a single licensee. A separate license is required for each
   television broadcast booster station.
