| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| Will the station be sharing equipment with another broadcast television station or stations (e.g., a shared antenna, co-location on a tower, use of the same transmitter room, multiple transmitters feeding a combiner, etc.)? If yes, enter the facility ID's of the other stations and click 'prefill' to download those stations' licensing information. | No |
| Briefly describe transition plan | WIYC, Inc., (WIYC) Ch. 48, Troy, AL, and has been reassigned to Ch.19. The Ch.19 operation will employ a new antenna to be side-mounted on the existing WIYC tower in lieu of the existing Ch. 48 antenna. No change in the antenna location will take place. |
