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 WBXX will be transitioning from channel 20 to channel 31 and will need to replace the existing main antenna, transmission line, and transmitter. The station will be installing an interim antenna, transmission line, and transmitter.
