Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. KICU ceased analog operations on 2/17/2009. Accordingly, Questions 2, 3 and 4 refer to the station's primary digital stream on channel 36.2 and 36.3. Questions 7(b) and 7(c) are no longer applicable. After due review of the internal station records and documentation provided to us by program suppliers, the licensee hereby certifies as follows: (i) only the programs specifically designed for children ages twelve and under that the station broadcast this quarter are disclosed in the report an (ii) the licensee fully complied with the FCC's Commercial Limits in children's programs, as specified at 47 C.F.R. Section 73.670, with respect to these programs. For KICU (DT2), in reference to the E/I symbol - Korean Broadcasting System or (KBS America) does not have English language graphic insertion capability. Further, KBS suggests that, since the Korean language does not use Roman alphabet characters and since their programming targets a Korean-speaking audience, the E/I symbol will not make sense to their viewers. On January 13, 2014, licensee amended its timely filed FCC Form 398 to correct errors licensee discovered in its initial filing. Licensee received confirmation number 150720 upon filing its timely filed FCC Form 398 on January 10, 2014. On July 30, 2014, licensee amended this timely filed children's programming report to correct certain information originally provided with respect to its D2 multicast stream.
