    Needs and Uses: 47 CFR 74.703(f) requires licensees of a Digital 
Low Power TV (LPTV) or TV translator station operating on a channel 
from channel 52-69 to eliminate at its expense any condition of 
interference caused to the operation of or services provided by 
existing and future commercial or public safety wireless licensees in 
the 700 MHz bands. The offending digital LPTV or translator station 
must cease operations immediately upon notification by any primary 
wireless licensee, once it has been established that the digital low 
power TV or translator station is causing the interference.
    The Commission amended this rule on September 9, 2004, in the 
Report and Order (R&O), In the Matter of Amendment of parts 73 and 74 
of the Commission's Rules to Establish Rules for Digital Low Power 
Television, Television Translator, and Television Booster Stations and 
to Amend Rules for Digital Class A Television Stations in MB Docket No. 
03-185, FCC 04-220. This differs from the previous version of the rules 
by adding notification and coordination requirements for applicants of 
digital LPTV or TV translator station operations on channels 52-69. The 
Report and Order extended to digital LPTV and TV translator station 
operations of all the interference remediation provisions in Section 
74.703 applicable to analog LPTV service stations.

Federal Communications Commission.

Secretary.
