Back to Top
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 Replace analog antenna at top of tower with new antenna; install new transmitter. This will allow parallel operation during the testing phase without additional expenses for temporary facilities. Ref: Attachment 1
