enter 'N' for Not Applicable. 

Demonstration licenses are intended for use by Licensees involved in the sale and/or marketing of radio equipment. Demonstration 

licenses may be used for purposes of demonstrating equipment to potential customers at trade shows or at other exhibitions, performing 

on site coverage studies for potential customers, or other uses as provided for in Subpart I of Part 2 of the Commission’s Rules. 

Demonstration licenses may not be used for the Licensee’s internal communications in its day to day business operations. 

In emergencies or other urgent conditions requiring immediate or temporary use of facilities, request may be made for Special 

Temporary Authority (STA) to install and/or operate new or modified equipment, subject to the appropriate requirements governing

Special Temporary Authorizations contained in the FCC rules. If item 3a is answered 'S', attach an exhibit including the following

information: description 

of the nature of the extraordinary circumstance, equipment to be used, type of operation to be conducted, and an explanation of 

how the facilities will be used, times and dates of operation.

Note: To file an initial request for an STA, Applicants should select an application purpose of NE-"New" 

in Item 2 and then answer Items 3a and 3b as appropriate. STAs are granted for a maximum of 180 days. 

If another STA or Demonstration license is needed, Applicants may file by selecting application purpose RO- "Renewal Only" 

and supply the appropriate Call Sign in Item 5. The "Renewal Only" purpose is provided for the convenience of the Applicant 

(the Applicant will retain the same call sign if the request is granted).

Item 3b This question only applies to applications for Special Temporary Authority (STA). If you are requesting an STA due to an

emergency or other urgent condition, enter 'Y' and attach an exhibit describing the nature of the emergency. Otherwise enter 'N'.

Per 47 CFR § 1.915, examples of emergencies are as follows: An emergency found by the Commission to involve danger to life or 

propertyor to be due to damaged equipment; a national emergency proclaimed by the President or declared by the Congress and

during the continuance of any war in which the United States is engaged, when such action is necessary for the national defense or 

security or otherwise in furtherance of the war effort; or an emergency where the Commission finds that it would not be feasible to 

secure renewal applications from existing Licensees or otherwise to follow normal licensing procedures.

Item 4 If the application is a request for an Amendment or Withdrawal of a previously filed currently pending application, provide

Regulatory status

Item 41 This item identifies the type(s) of radio service offerings being provided and must be completed. Enter all types of radio 

service offerings that apply. Enter 'C' for Common Carrier, 'N' for Non-Common Carrier, 'P' for Private, internal communications or 'B' 

for Broadcast Services, and 'BM' for Band Manager. Use the Modification (MD) purpose in Item 2 to change or add radio service 

offerings. NOTE: For Broadcast Auxiliary radio services, select 'P' for Private, internal communications. Do not select

Broadcast Services.

All entities that are telecommunications carriers should select common carrier on this form. The term 'telecommunications carrier' 

means any provider of telecommunications services, except that such term does not include aggregators of telecommunications 

services (the term 'aggregator’ means any person that, in the ordinary course of its operations, makes telephones available to

the public or to transient users of its premises, for interstate telephone calls using a provider of operator services). A 

telecommunications carrier shallbe treated as a common carrier under the Communications Act and the Commission's Rules 

(i.e., as an entity which holds itself out for hire indiscriminately, in interstate or foreign communications by wire or radio, or in 

interstate or foreign radio transmission of energy, for the purpose of carrying transmissions provided by the customer), only to 

the extent that it is engaged in providing telecommunications services.

The term 'telecommunications service' means the offering of telecommunications (i.e., the transmission, between or among points 

specified by the user, of information of the user's choosing, without change in the form or content of the information as

sent and received) for a fee directly to the public, or to such classes of users as to be effectively available directly to the public, 

regardless of the facilities used.

Non-common carriers do not hold themselves out indiscriminately for hire as carriers of communications provided by the 

customer. A person engaged in radio broadcasting shall not, insofar as such person is so engaged, be deemed a common 

carrier. Thus, those entities meeting this definition would select non-common carrier for this item.

Private internal users are those entities that utilize telecommunications services purely for internal business purposes or public 

safety communications and not on a for-hire or for-profit basis. Such entities should select 'Private' for this item. Broadcast 

Auxiliary should be included in this category and should select 'Private'.

The term 'Broadcast Services' shall have the same meaning as that for "broadcasting" in§ 3(7) of the Communications Act of 1934, i.e., 

the dissemination of radio communications intended to be received by the public, directly or by the intermediary of relay stations." 

47 U.S.C. 153(7). Entities meeting this definition should select 'Broadcast Services' for this item. Broadcast Auxiliary Applicants 

should not select this type of radio service offering.

The term 'Band Manager' is defined for the 746-747 MHz, 762-764 MHz, 776-777 MHz, and 792-794 MHz Guard Bands as a

commercial Licensee that functions solely as a spectrum broker by subdividing its licensed spectrum and making it available to 

system operators or directly to end users for fixed or mobile communications consistent with the Commission Rules. A Band Manager 

in the 700 MHz Guard Bands (i.e., a "Guard Band Manager") is directly responsible for any interference or misuse of its licensed 

frequencies arising from its use by such non-licensed entities. Entities meeting this definition should select 'Band Manager' for this

item.

Type Of Radio Service

Item 42 This item identifies all types of radio services for the Applicant. Enter 'F' for Fixed, 'M' for Mobile, 'R' for Radiolocation, 

'S' for Satellite, and 'B' for Broadcast Services. Enter all types of radio services, as applicable. Broadcast Auxiliary Applicants 

should select Fixed or Mobile, not Broadcast Services. Note: Broadcast Services is for the direct dissemination to the public.

Item 43 Indicate whether the Applicant plans to provide interconnected service to the public switched telephone network as 

defined in the FCC rules. Enter 'Y' if yes. Otherwise, enter 'N'.

Alien Ownership Questions

These items enable the FCC to determine whether an Applicant is eligible under§ 310(a) and (b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as

amended, to hold a station license. Applicants are required to answer these questions only if 1) they are filing FCC Form 601 for one of

the following purposes indicated in Item 2: New, Amendment, Modification, or Renewal/Modification; and 2) the answers have changed

from those previously provided. If the answer is 'Y', attach exhibit explaining circumstances. Applicants using FCC Form 601 for any

other purpose are not required to answer these questions. Any Applicant that answers 'Y' to Items 44-48 must provide an attachment
FCC 601- Main Form Instructions

February 2024 - Page 14

explaining the circumstances. The FCC will otherwise dismiss the Application without further consideration.

The Commission's foreign ownership rules for common carrier, aeronautical enroute and aeronautical fixed radio station licensees

are codified in 47 CFR §§ 1.5000-1.5004. See also Review of Foreign Ownership Policies for Common Carrier and Aeronautical 

Radio Licensees under Section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, IB Docket No. 11-133, Second 

Report and Order, 28 FCC Red 5741 (2013) ("Foreign Ownership Second Report and Order") .

Item 44 All Applicants filing FCC Form 601 for one of the purposes indicated above must answer Item 44. The FCC cannot grant 

an authorization to a foreign government or the representative of a foreign government. Therefore, if the true and correct answer 

to Item 44 is 'Y', the Applicant is not eligible to hold a license and the FCC will dismiss the application, if filed, without further 

consideration.

Items 45-46 The FCC cannot grant an authorization to provide common carrier or aeronautical enroute service to any Applicant 

for which the true and correct answer to either of Items 45 or 46 is 'Y' Any Applicant that answers 'Y' to either of Items 45 or 46 

must provide an attachment explaining why the requested license(s) is exempt from the prohibitions contained in Section 

310(b)(1)-(2) of the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. § 310(b)(1)-(2). The FCC will otherwise dismiss the application without further

consideration.

Item 47 Enter 'Y' if the Applicant is a corporation of which more than one-fifth of the capital stock is owned of record or voted by 

aliens or their representatives, or by a foreign government or representative thereof, or by any corporation organized under the 

laws of a foreign country. Otherwise, enter 'N'. If the answer is 'Y', and if the requested license(s) would allow for the

provision of a common carrier service, it is necessary for the Applicant to have or obtain Commission approval. See 47 CFR § 

1.5000 (a)(2). If the answer is 'Y', and if the requested license(s) would allow for the provision of aeronautical enroute

service, the Applicant must provide an attachment explaining why the requested license(s) is exempt from the prohibitions

contained in Section 310(b)(3) of the Communications Act, 47

U.S.C. § 310(b)(3). The FCC will otherwise dismiss the application without further consideration.

While Section 310(b)(3) of the Communications Act prohibits foreign individuals, governments, and corporations from owning 

more than 20 percent of the capital stock of a broadcast common carrier, aeronautical enroute, and aeronautical fixed radio

station licensee, the Commission has determined that it will not apply the 20 percent limit to common carrier licensees in which 

the foreign investment is held in the licensee through U.S.-organized entities that do not control the licensee, to the extent 

the Commission determines such foreign ownership is consistent with the public interest. In making a public interest

determination, the Commission applies the same policies and procedures that it applies in reviewing foreign ownership that is 

subject to Section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act. The Commission adopted this Section 310(b)(3) "forbearance"

approach in the Review of Foreign Ownership Policies for Common Canier and Aeronautical Radio Licensees under Section 

310(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934, as Amended, 18 Docket No. 11-133, 27 FCC Red 9832 (2012) ("Foreign

Ownership First Report and Order' ). The Commission codified the forbearance approach in the

Foreign Ownership Second Report and Order, 28 FCC Red at 5759-5763, § 30-37 .

The Commission's Section 310(b)(3) forbearance approach applies only to foreign equity and voting interests that are held, or 

would be held, in the common carrier Licensee through one or more intervening U.S.-organized entities that do not control the 

Licensee. Foreign equity and/or voting interests that are held, or would be held, directly in the Licensee, or indirectly other than 

through an intervening U.S.- organized entity, are not subject to the Commission's Section 310(b)(3) forbearance approach and 

shall not be permitted to exceed 20 percent equity or voting interests.

Accordingly, if the requested license(s) would allow for the provision of a common carrier service, any Applicant that answers 

'Y' to Item 47 must provide an attachment consisting of one of the showings specified in (i), (ii), or (iii) below . The FCC will 

otherwise dismiss the application without further consideration.

(i) A demonstration that the subject application is exempt from the provisions of Section 310(b)(3);

(ii) A statement that the Applicant has received prior Commission approval of its foreign ownership pursuant to the

Commission's Section 310(b)(3) forbearance approach, citation(s) to the relevant declaratory ruling(s) received by the Applicant

(i.e., DA or FCC Number, FCC

Record citation if available, and release date), and a statement specifying that the Applicant is in compliance with the

terms andconditions of its ruling and with the Commission's Rules; or

(iii) A copy of a petition for declaratory ruling filed pursuant to 47 CFR § 1.5000 (a)(2) requesting Commission approval of 

the Applicant's foreign ownership, held through one or more intervening U.S.-organized entities that hold non-controlling 

equity and/or voting interests in the Applicant, along with any foreign interests held in the Applicant directly (which shall 

not exceed 20 percent ofits equity interests and/or 20 percent of its voting interests). The petition may be filed electronically on 

the Internet through the International Bureau Filing System (IBFS) and shall otherwise comport with the requirements of

47 CFR §§ 1.5000 -1.5004.

With respect to the showing specified in (ii) above, an Applicant that is relying on a foreign ownership ruling(s) issued to 

an "affiliate" pursuant to the Commission's Section 310(b)(3) forbearance approach and 47 CFR § 1.5000 (a)(2) shall include in 

its showing a certification signed by the affiliate, a U.S.-organized successor-in-interest formed as part of a pro forma

reorganization, or a controlling parent company, stating that the affiliate or successor-in-interest is in compliance with the terms 

and conditions of the foreign ownership ruling(s) and the Commission's Rules. See 47 CFR § 1.5004 (b). See also 47 CFR § 

1.5000 (d)(2) (defining the term "affiliate" for purposes of Sections 1.5000 -1.5004 of the Rules).

Item 48a Enter 'Y' if the Applicant is directly or indirectly controlled by any other U.S.-organized entity of which more than one-
FCC 601- Main Form Instructions

February 2024 - Page 15

fourth of the capital stock is owned of record or voted by aliens or their representatives, or by a foreign government or

representative thereof, or by any corporation organized under the laws of a foreign country. Otherwise, enter 'N'. If the 

answer is 'Y', and if the requested license(s) would allow for the provision of a common carrier or aeronautical enroute service, 

it is necessary for the Applicant to have or obtain Commission approval of the foreign ownership of its direct and/or indirect

controlling U.S.-organized parent company(ies) pursuant to Section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934, 47 U.S.C. 

§ 310(b)(4). See 47 CFR § 1.5000(a)(1); Foreign Ownership Second Report and Order, 28 FCC Red at 5759-5763, 111130-

37 .

Accordingly, any Applicant that answers 'Y' to Item 48a must provide an attachment consisting of one of the showings specified 

in (i), (ii), or (iii) below. The FCC will otherwise dismiss the application without further consideration.

(i) A demonstration that the requested license(s) is exempt from the provisions of Section 310(b)(4);

(ii) A statement that the Applicant has received prior Commission approval of the foreign ownership of its direct and/or indirect controlling

U.S. parent company(ies) pursuant to Section 310(b)(4), citation(s) to the relevant declaratory ruling(s) received by the Applicant

(i.e., DA or FCC Number, FCC Record citation if available, and release date), and a statement specifying that the Applicant is in 

compliance with the terms and conditions of its ruling and with the Commission's Rules; or

(iii) A copy of a petition for declaratory ruling filed pursuant to 47 CFR § 1.5000 (a)(1) requesting Commission approval of the 

foreign ownership of its direct and/or indirect controlling U.S.-organized parent company(ies). The petition may be filed 

electronically on the Internet through the International Bureau Filing System (IBFS) and shall otherwise comport with the 

requirements of 47 CFR §§ 1.5000- 1.5004. With respect to the showing specified in (ii) above, an Applicant that is relying on

a foreign ownership ruling(s) issued to an "affiliate" pursuant to Section 310(b)(4) of the Act and 47 CFR § 1.5000 (a)(1) shall 

include in its showing a certification signed by the affiliate, a U.S.-organized successor-in-interest formed as part of a pro forma

reorganization, or a controlling parent company, stating that the affiliate or successor-in-interest is in compliance with the

terms and conditions of the foreign ownership ruling(s) and the

Commission's Rules. See 47 CFR § 1.500 (b). See also 47 CFR § 1.5000 (d)(2) (defining the term "affiliate" for purposes 

of Sections 1.5000-1.5004 of the Rules).

Item 48b An Applicant that has answered 'Y' to Item 47 and/or Item 48a is required to respond to Item 48b. Item 48b 

enables the FCC to determine whether the Applicant has attached to its application the appropriate foreign ownership 

showing required by the Commission's Foreign Ownership Second Report and Order, IB Docket No. 11-133, FCC 13-50, 

and the foreign ownership rulesadopted in that Order, 47 CFR §§ 1.5000-1.5004. See Main Form Instructions for Item 47 and

Item 48a.

 Basic Qualification Questions

Items 49-51 These items enable the FCC to determine whether an Applicant is eligible under§§ 310(d) and 308(b) of the Communications

Act of 1934, as amended, to hold or have ownership interest in a station license. Applicants are required to answer these questions

only if 1) they are filing FCC Form 601 for one of the following purposes indicated in Item 2: New, Amendment, Modification, or

Renewal/Modification; and 2) the answers have changed from those previously provided. Applicants using FCC Form 601 for any 

other purpose are not required to answer these questions. If the answer to any one or more of Items 49-51 is 'Y', attach as an exhibit a 

statement explaining the circumstances and a statement giving the reasons why the Applicant believes that grant of the application

would be in the public interest notwithstanding the actual or alleged misconduct. If the Applicant responds 'Y' to any question and has

previously provided a statement and explanation regarding the circumstances as an attachment to a prior application filed in ULS, 

and the facts and circumstances are unchanged, the Applicant may refer to the previous application by identifying the application file 

number and indicating the disposition of the prior application.

These questions must be answered on renewal applications for 700 MHz, AWS-4, H Block, AWS-3, and/or 600 MHz licenses 

filed beginning [effective]. These questions must be answered on renewal applications for all geographic-area licenses

identified in 47 CFR

§ 1.907 ("Covered Geographic Licenses") beginning January 1, 2023, with the exception of UMFUS licenses, but licensee

compliancewith these requirements will be measured from [effective date]. In advance of the January 1, 2023, date, licensees

holding Covered Geographic Licenses other than 700 MHz, AWS-4, H Block, AWS-3, and/or 600 MHz licenses will not be 

required to answer these questions and will be required to comply with the service-specific renewal rules in effect as of 

August 3, 2017. Licensees holding UMFUS licenses will not be required to answer these questions until June 1, 2024.

These questions must be answered on renewal applications for Covered Site-Based licenses filed after 10/01/2020.

For Item 57, the licensee of a Covered Site-based License that has temporarily reduced operations under the license for 

fewer than 180 days during the term of the license, or the licensee of a Covered Geographic License (not including a 

partitioned or disaggregatedlicense without a performance requirement) that has temporarily dropped below its construction

benchmark associated with the license for fewer than 180 days during the term of the license, may make the applicable

Operation/Performance Requirement Certification.

Also for Item 57, licensees of a partitioned or disaggregated Covered Geographic License without a performance requirement

as of 10/01/2020 will not be required to make the applicable certification regarding use of its spectrum until the end of its

second or subsequent license term after 10/01/2020.

For Item 58, if a licensee seeks to renew a license in a service that did not have an explicit definition of permanent

discontinuance as of August 3, 2017, such a licensee has until January 1, 2019, to come into compliance with our new

permanent discontinuance rules. If a licensee in such service is not providing service or is not operational on January 1, 

2019, the discontinuance period would start as of that date.

For Item 59, if the Applicant was granted a waiver under applicable FCC rules and policies, and the Applicant has 

substantially complied with the terms of such waiver and the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, it may select 

'Y' as the appropriate response.

Appendix I

General Guidelines on International Coordination Requirements

International coordination is an ongoing process, and agreements with neighboring countries are subject to change at any time.

A current list of agreements with Canada, arranged by frequency band, is available at https://www.fcc.gov/canadian-agreements-frequency

A current list of agreements with Mexico, arranged by frequency band, is available at https://www.fcc.gov/mexican-agreements-frequency

These links provide guidance on whether the frequency band being applied for is subject to international coordination with Canada or Mexico.

Applicants should refer to the actual agreement to determine the specific coordination criteria applicable to a frequency band. If you are 

unsure of the coordination criteria for a particular frequency band, contact the Commission for guidance.

International agreements shown at the links above specify general coordination criteria only for those frequency bands for which

coordination authority resides with the FCC. Frequency bands that are shared with the Federal Government may have different

coordination criteria and are coordinated by the Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee (IRAC).See 47 CFR § 2.106 for a 

table offrequency allocations. The following list of counties/boroughs, by state, provides further guidance on which areas require

frequency coordination with Canada.
