   (2) This frequency band is shared with Government stations.

   (3) This frequency band is shared, on a secondary basis, with stations in
   the broadcasting-satellite and fixed-satellite services. As of March 1,
   2005, no new LTTS operators will be licensed in the 11.7-12.2 GHz band. LTTS
   operators authorized prior to March 1, 2005 may continue to operate in
   11.7-12.2 GHz band until their license expires; no existing LTTS licenses
   will be renewed in the 11.7-12.2 GHz band.

   (4) This frequency band is shared with stations in the earth-exploration

   Stations authorized prior to June 30, 1997, may continue to operate within
   the existing terms of the outstanding licenses, subject to renewal. Non-LMDS
   stations authorized pursuant to applications refiled no later than June 26,
   1998  shall  operate  on  an  unprotected basis and subject to harmful
   interference from similarly licensed stations or stations licensed prior to
   June 30, 1997, and on a secondary basis to LMDS radio stations.

   (8) The maximum power for the local television transmission service in the
   14.2-14.4 GHz band is + 45 dBW except that operations are not permitted
   within 1.5 degrees of the geostationary orbit. As of March 1, 2005, no new
   LTTS operators will be licensed in the 14.2-14.4 GHz band. LTTS operators
   authorized prior to March 1, 2005 may continue to operate in 14.2-14.4 GHz
   band until their license expires; no existing LTTS licenses will be renewed
   in the 11.7-12.2 GHz band.

   (b) Communications common carriers in the Local Television Transmission
   Service may be assigned frequencies listed in § § 74.602(a), 78.18(a)(6), and

   stations, television broadcast network-entities, cable system operators, and
   cable network-entities. Frequency availability is subject to the provisions
   of § 74.604 of this chapter and the use of the facility is limited to the
   permissible uses described in § § 74.631 and 78.11 of this chapter. Operations
   on these frequencies are subject to the technical provisions of part 74,
