   period  of more than 10 days, the station may not limit or discontinue
   operation until it requests and receives specific authority to do so from
   the FCC. When the station subsequently resumes regular operation after such
   limited operation or discontinuance of operation, it shall notify the FCC in
   Washington, DC. The license of a broadcasting station that fails to transmit
   broadcast signals for any consecutive 12-month period expires as a matter of
   law at the end of that period, notwithstanding any provision, term, or
   condition of the license to the contrary.
