Sec. 23.51  Addressed program material.

    (a) Stations operating in the fixed public service and in the fixed 
public press service may be authorized to transmit addressed program 
material to a fixed point, or points, outside the 48 contiguous States 
and the District of Columbia, specifically named in the instrument of 
authorization granted to the licensee, intended for broadcast only by a 
broadcast station. Any such authorization shall be subject to the 
condition that no interference is caused to the authorized regular 
service of the station as defined by Sec. 23.8.
    (b) Such stations may also, upon proper application therefor, be 
authorized to transmit addressed program material to any such fixed 
point in South or Central America for simultaneous interception and 
broadcast by a broadcast station at one or more additional points in the 
same general area upon a showing that public message service to such 
fixed point of communication will not be unduly impaired. Application 
for such authority shall be submitted not less than 10 days prior to the 
proposed date of the the first interception. Such application shall 
show, in addition to the proposed intercept and broadcast points, the 
South or Central American station or stations over which the program 
will be broadcast, a full description of the arrangements made for such 
intercept and broadcast, and the period for which such authority is 
requested. Authorizations will be limited to the period for which 
arrangements for broadcasting by South or Central American stations have 
been made and in no event will extend beyond the term of the point-to-
point station license.
