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 Since applicant is building on a new (different) leased tower and on a new channel we will simply purchase new equipment. Its old antenna can not be reused and its exciter and output filter are channel specific and can not be used on the new channel.
