§ 74.131 Licensing requirements, necessary showing.
(a) An applicant for a new experimental broadcast station, change in
facilities of any existing station, or modification of license is
required to make a satisfactory showing of compliance with the general
requirements of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, as well as
the following:
(1) That the applicant has a definite program of research and
experimentation in the technical phases of broadcasting which indicates
reasonable promise of substantial contribution to the developments of
the broadcasting art.
(2) That upon the authorization of the proposed station the applicant
can and will proceed immediately with its program of research and
experimentation.
(3) That the transmission of signals by radio is essential to the
proposed program of research and experimentation.
(4) That the program of research and experimentation will be conducted
by qualified personnel.
(b) A license of an experimental broadcast station will not authorize
exclusive use of any frequency. In case interference would be caused by
simultaneous operation of stations licensed experimentally, such
licensees shall endeavor to arrange satisfactory time division. If such
agreement cannot be reached, the FCC will determine and specify the
time division.
(c) A license for an experimental broadcast station will be issued only
on the condition that no objectionable interference to the regular
program transmissions of broadcast stations will result from the
transmissions of the experimental stations.
