§ 74.803   Frequency selection to avoid interference.

   (a) Where two or more low power auxiliary licensees need to operate in
   the same area, the licensees shall endeavor to select frequencies or
   schedule operation in such manner as to avoid mutual interference. If a
   mutually satisfactory arrangement cannot be reached, the Commission
   shall be notified and it will specify the frequency or frequencies to
   be employed by each licensee.

   (b) The selection of frequencies in the bands allocated for TV
   broadcasting for use in any area shall be guided by the need to avoid
   interference to TV broadcast reception. In these bands, low power
   auxiliary station usage is secondary to TV broadcasting and land mobile
   stations operating in the UHF-TV spectrum and must not cause harmful
   interference. If such interference occurs, low power auxiliary station
   operation must immediately cease and may not be resumed until the
   interference problem has been resolved.
