Broadcaster Information and Transition Plan

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 WMGT-TV Plans to remodel existing room that housed analog transmitter then replace its existing antenna and transmitter with new ones that will accommodate its new channel. In the interim it will use interim antenna from WCBI in phase 1
