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 | Move to a facility that will have broadband antenna and combiners. One transmitter will be pre-tuned to the post-transition channel and enabled at the appropriate time. |
