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 | Will retune existing antenna and transmission line. Install new combiner. WECT and WWAY co-own tower, combiner, line, and antenna and building. WSFX leases these facilities. Plan assumes all stations transition in the same phase |
