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 Install interim Aux.antenna and move KCDT-45 and K26LJ-D over to it at reduced output power. (Requires STA) Then decommission existing KCDT-45 antenna and damaged transmission line. Install new UHF wideband antenna and 3 1/8" rigid line on tower.
