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 | Station will install a single channel antenna and line which replaces existing shared (WDBD) dual channel slotted antenna and line . This is the less expensive option over replacing the combined slot with a panel antenna. |
