| 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 | Interim post-transition transmitter will be commissioned at the interim site. Following the transition, the interim site will become the new main and the prior main site will be equipped with new transmitter and become the aux. |
