§ 5.61 Procedure for obtaining a special temporary authorization.
(a) The Commission may issue a special temporary authorization under
this part in cases in which a need is shown for operation of a station
for six months or less, provided such operation is not in conflict with
the Commission's rules in this part. In cases in which an applicant
sets forth compelling reasons why a special temporary authorization
must be granted expeditiously, preference will be given to processing
the application.
(b) Extensions of a special temporary authorization will be granted
provided that an application for a regular experimental license has
been filed at least 15 days prior to the expiration of the licensee's
temporary authority. When such an application is timely filed,
operations may continue in accordance with the other terms and
conditions of the temporary authority pending disposition of the
application, unless the applicant is notified otherwise by the
Commission.
(c) An application for special temporary authorization shall be filed
electronically through the Office of Engineering and Technology Web
site https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/cf/els/index.cfm effective
