                  Subpart B--Applications and Licenses
 
Sec. 5.71  License period.

    (a) The regular license period for stations in the Experimental 
Radio Service is either 2 or 5 years. An applicant desiring to apply for 
a 5-year license must provide justification for its need for a license 
of that duration. A license may be renewed upon an adequate showing of 
need.
    (b) A license will not be granted for a period longer than that 
which is required for completion of the experimental project. If such 
period is estimated to be less than 2 years, or between 2-5 years, a 
statement to that effect by the applicant may facilitate grant of the 
application. See also Sec. 5.69 of this part.
