| 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 | Modification of the KAVU transmitting facility to accommodate the channel change from 15 to 20. This will require replacing the KAVU CH.15 portion of combiner and mask filter, re-tune exiting transmitter, and installation of a new tuned elbow on the tower |
