| 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 | Build CH23 xmtr, replace ant stack with CH23 ant mounted on pole. Use the CH48 main feedline for a new CH23 aux ant. Install a new feedline for the CH23 main ant.Remain on air using the CH48 aux ant.After transition, remove the CH48 aux ant and feedline. |
