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 | 1.Install an interim antenna on channel 24 at our present licensed ERP or as close to it as we can obtain with our existing transmitter. 2.Purchase a replacement top mount antenna and line for the repack channel 17 with new mask filter and transmitter. |
