| 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 | KZCS-LP is moving to a different, existing tower in the same location, which it will share with KOAA (FacID 59014). The station is purchasing a new like-for-like transmitter, like-for-like antenna, and like-for-like transmission line. |
