"conflicting" application subject to dismissal under Section 73.3518.14 This restriction applies even
where more than one frequency is available at its proposed transmitter site.
Conflicting Applications. After the close of the LPFM filing window, in cases of conflicting,
Le, "mutually exclusive," applications, mutual exclusivity determinations will be made with regard
to all timely and complete filings.'s Thus, unless the applicants propose a settlement, the Commission
will use a point system to select among the mutually exclusive applications.16 Applicants may claim a
point for the following criteria if the applicant: (1) has an established community presence of at least two
years; (2) pledges to originate locally at least eight hours' of programming per day; (3) pledges to maintain
a publicly accessible main studio that has local program origination capability; (4) can certify that it
qualifies for a point under both the local program origination and the main studio criteria; (5) can certify
that neither it nor any party to the application has an attributable interest in another broadcast station; and
(6) is a Tribal Applicant proposing to locate its transmitting antenna site on that Tribal Applicant's Tribal
Lands.17
The comparative qualifications of applicants, i.e., maximum possible points awarded pursuant to
Section 73.872, are established as of the close of the filing window. While new and major change
applications may be amended without limitation during the filing window,'" amendments that would
improve the comparative position of these new and major change applications will not be accepted after
the close of the filing window.'9
