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 Install interim channel 10 antenna, line, and transmitter before switchover date. At switchover date, begin operation on channel 10 interim system. Remove channel 12 equipment. Install full power channel 10 equipment and begin operations.
