§ 74.537   Temporary authorizations.

   (a) Special temporary authority may be granted for aural broadcast STL or
   intercity relay station operation which cannot be conducted in accordance
   with § 74.24. Such authority will normally be granted only for operations of
   a temporary nature. Where operation is seen as likely on a continuing annual
   basis, an application for a regular authorization should be submitted.

   (b) A request for special temporary authority for the operation of an aural
   broadcast STL or an intercity relay station must be made in accordance with
   the procedures of § 1.931(b) of this chapter.

   (c) All requests for special temporary authority of an aural broadcast
   auxiliary stations must include full particulars including: licensee's name
   and address, facility identification number of the associated broadcast
   station(s), call letters of the aural broadcast STL or intercity relay
   station,  if  assigned,  type and manufacturer of equipment, effective
   isotropic radiated power, emission, frequency or frequencies proposed for
   use,  commencement  and  termination date and location of the proposed
   operation, and purpose for which request is made including any particular
   justification.

   (d) A request for special temporary authorization shall specify a frequency
   or frequencies consistent with the provisions of § 74.502. However, in the
   case  of  events of widespread interest and importance which cannot be
   transmitted successfully on these frequencies, frequencies assigned to other
   services may be requested upon a showing that operation thereon will not
   cause interference to established stations. In no case will operation of an
   aural broadcast STL or intercity relay station be authorized on frequencies
   employed for the safety of life or property.

   (e) When the transmitting equipment utilized is not licensed to the user,
   the user shall nevertheless have full control over the use of the equipment
   during the period it is operated.

   (f) Special temporary authorization to permit operation of aural broadcast
   STL  or  intercity  relay stations or systems pending FCC action on an
   application for regular authority will normally not be granted.
