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. Yes
Briefly describe transition plan WKYC operates on a shared tower with WVIZ. Each stations has separate transmitters antennas and transmission lines. WKYC Will be replacing the Primary and Aux antenna, transmission line and transmitter.
