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. KZJO endeavors to air public service announcements of educational and informational value geared towards children within our children's programming. A list of children's PSAs that aired during the quarter - including dates and times - can be found in the station's public inspection file. KZJO ceased analog broadcasts on June 12, 2009. Thus, there were no analog broadcasts during the reporting period so the answer to Question 7(b) should be "no." The primary signal of station KCPQ, Tacoma WA is simulcast on KZJO's channel 22.2 to improve signal coverage. The core programming for that channel is reported on KCPQ's Form FCC 398. KMYQ call letters changed to KZJO on 9/13/10. Antenna TV launched on KZJO's digital channel 22.3 on 1/1/11. Listings for 3rd quarter reflect fall season schedule changes.
