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 Implement initial post-cutover operation on existing wideband antenna, with transmitter modified for operation on the new channel, then replace the primary antenna; see attached Implementation Plan document.
