73.808

Part 73, Subpart G, § 73.808 is a regulation that simply describes how distances are measured for LPFM distance separations.

Distances are measured to the nearest kilometer. For example, if the required distance is 67 kilometers and the actual distance is 66.499 kilometers, that rounds down to 66 kilometers and thus, the station would be short-spaced. However, if the actual distance is 66.500 kilometers, that rounds up to 67 and would meet distance separation requirements.
