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 | Retune transmitter, replace mask filter and antenna, with rigging for installation. Interim antenna to stay on the air while the main antenna is being replaced in the same location. Map tower for structural analysis. Possible tower mods to be determined. |
